SS John B. Cowle (1902)
The ''SS John B. Cowle (1902)'' was one of the early Great Lakes bulk freighters known as "tin pans". She was the first of two ships named for prominent Cleveland, Ohio citizen and shipbuilder, John Beswick Cowle. On her maiden voyage in 1909, the ''Isaac M. Scott '' rammed the ''Cowle'' in heavy fog off Whitefish Point. The ''Cowle'' sank in 3 minutes, taking 14 of her 24 man crew with her. Artifacts from her wreck were illegally removed in the 1980s. Her artifacts are now the property of the State of Michigan and are on display as a loan to the Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum. The wreck of the ''Cowle'' is protected as part of an underwater museum in the Whitefish Point Underwater Preserve.

The steamer ''SS John B. Cowle'' was built in 1902 by the Jenks Shipbuilding Company for the newly formed Cowle Transit Company.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://ul.bgsu.edu/cgi-bin/xvsl2.cgi )〕〔Oleszewski, Wes (1993, 1994, 1998).

Just several days prior to the ''Cowle's'' sinking, one deckhand left her at Detroit, Michigan after his father talked him into quitting and three more deckhands quit the ''Cowle'' at the iron ore dock in Two Harbors, Minnesota . The four replacement deckhands all drowned on the ''Cowle'' just 2 days later.
