History #
The fish tug Alzora, whose details regarding other names, official number, build information, and specifications are unknown, met a tragic fate in 1908. On July 22 of that year, the vessel encountered a devastating fire that ultimately led to its sinking. The incident occurred approximately 2.5 miles off Bay Port, Michigan, in Saginaw Bay, which is part of Lake Huron.
Unfortunately, the available information does not provide details about any loss of life resulting from the fire and subsequent sinking of the Alzora. It is unclear whether there were crew members or passengers aboard the vessel at the time of the incident. As a result, further information regarding the individuals involved and their fate remains unknown.
The exact cause of the fire and the circumstances surrounding the incident are also unspecified. The Alzora was reported to have burned and subsequently sank as a result of the fire. The lack of information about the vessel’s build, specifications, and official number limits our ability to provide a more detailed account of its history or the events leading up to the tragedy.
Given the limited information available, it is challenging to provide a comprehensive narrative of the Alzora’s history as a fish tug or the specific context in which the fire and sinking occurred.
