Welcome to season 3 with Capt. Darrell Walton on the Edmund Fitzgerald. In previous episodes, Capt. Darrell and I have extensively covered the Arthur M. Anderson and its role in the Legend of the Edmund Fitzgerald. In our latest episode, Capt. Darrell dives into the story of the Wilfred Sykes and how it played a part in the Mighty Fitz's fate. Darrell also digs into the Fitzgerald's hatch covers and how they contributed to the great ship's demise. As you may already know, Darrell's uncle Ralph Grant Walton was an oiler on the Fitzgerald and went down with the ill-fated lake carrier when it sank in Lake Superior on Nov. 10, 1975. Join me, the History Mystery Man, as we dive back into the Legend of the Edmund Fitzgerald, Season 3...and thanks for your support! #EdmundFitzgerald #LakeFreighters #GreatLakes #GreatLakesShipping #LakeSuperior #WilfredSykes #GordonLightfoot
