Fishing tug Katherine V.

[1] The Katherine V. was built by Henry Vincent of Rogers City, Michigan in 1928[3] for Charles A. Vogelheim, and named for his wife and daughter.She is unique in that she spent her entire fishing career in Lake Huron waters off the northeastern Lower peninsula.[5] In 1931, the Katherine V. came to the assistance of another fishing tug, The Tramp, which became locked in ice that was 20 feet (6.1 m) thick.The Katherine V. and Tramp resumed their plans to catch fish, but the duo eventually had to return.Both vessels left a watchman on duty at night in case the wind decided to change course.
