MANISTEE, Mich. — The A.T.B. Undaunted/Pere Marquette 41 delivered agricultural lime to the Rieth-Riley Construction dock along Manistee Lake Thursday, Oct. 30, it’s first delivery since its recent five-year inspection. The articulated tug/barge had been in dry dock at Fincantieri Bay Shipbuilding shipyard in Sturgeon Bay, Wis. since Oct. 6. After leaving the shipyard earlier this week, it travelled to Port Dolomite in Cedarville where it picked up its cargo. 

The Ludington-based vessel, operated by Interlake Logistics Solutions, arrived at Manistee about 6:30 a.m. Thursday and departed about 3:30 p.m., returning to Cedarville.
