About MISEFORD
MV Miseford is a tugboat built in 1915 by M. Beatty & Sons Ltd. in Welland, Ontario. Miseford is 80 feet long, 20 feet wide and has a draught of 9.42 feet. It measures 114 gross tons and was originally powered by a triple-expansion steam engine with two coal-fired boilers (make, size, and info unknown). The hull is riveted plate steel from when the tug was originally made. This tug was originally built for Alvin J. Misener & Erwin G. Tedford (owned from 1915 to 1922); then it was in possession of the Minister of Game & Fisheries for the Province of Ontario (from 1922 to 1940). Since then it has been sold a few times, until 2005, when it was purchased by Thunder Bay Tug Services. On November 4, 1965, the Miseford was driven aground by strong winds in the St. Marys River. It was salvaged in 1966.
