SS Sagamore (1892)
The ''SS Sagamore (1892)'' is reported to be the best example of a whaleback barge among Great Lakes shipwrecks. Only 48 whalebacks ever existed on the Great Lakes. She sank in 1901 in the shipping lane near the Soo Locks when she was rammed by the steel steamer ''Northern Queen'' in one of Whitefish Bay's notorious fogs. Her Captain and two crewmembers went down 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 ''Sagamore'' is protected as part of an underwater museum in the Whitefish Point Underwater Preserve.

The ''SS Sagamore's'' keel was laid 15 December 1891 by the American Steel Barge Company and she was launched 23 July 1892 in Superior, Wisconsin. She was built as 1,601 gross ton whaleback steamer barge, in length, in beam, and in draft. She was enrolled in Marquette, Michigan. She was sold to the Huron Barge Company and managed by Pickands, Mathers, and Company of Ashtabula, Ohio.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://ul.bgsu.edu/cgi-bin/xvsl2.cgi )〕〔Kohl, Cris (1998).
