G.W. Rogers was a tugboat active on the Great Lakes.
She was built in 1919, at Great Yarmouth, in the United Kingdom.[1] Her previous names included: Ballen Balloch, West Hope and Ocean Gull.
She helped free the lake freighter George M. Carl, when she ran aground off the mouth of the Humber River, in 1975.[2]
The G.W. Rogers sank at her moorings at Rensselaer, New York in December 1987.[3] A port official told the Schenectady Gazette that the vessel was so rusty her name was "nearly illegible". The Schenectady Gazette reported that a floating crane would have to be brought from New York City to salvage the tug, as the combined weight of the vessel and a land-based crane would overwhelm the moorings.
