Three Brothers (ship)

The fire box boiler was manufactured by R. Davis of Milwaukee and rated at 100 pounds per square inch (690 kPa).[citation needed] On 27 September 1911, Three Brothers was carrying a load of hardwood worth of $4,200 from Boyne City to Chicago.After leaving Boyne City the vessel was sailing in heavy weather, and the hull began to leak more than usual.When the vessel hit the shore the bow split open and her pilot house was knocked loose.[citation needed] After the weather subsided, the tender Favourite made an unsuccessful attempt to loosen Three Brothers, and the vessel was declared to be beyond salvage value.
