History
The ANZAC, sometimes referred to as ANZAC K, was a tug, possibly a fish tug, that met its unfortunate fate on May 6, 1947. The specific details of its construction, such as build information and official specifications, are not available.
Weighing approximately 9 tons, the ANZAC was lost due to a fire incident. The incident occurred 18 miles southeast of Port Burwell, Ontario, in Lake Erie. Regrettably, there is no information regarding any loss of life or the cargo the ANZAC was carrying at the time of the fire.
The vessel burned near the base of Long Point, leaving behind only fragments of its once operational form. While exact sources or comprehensive records are not mentioned, this event has been documented in some historical accounts.
Recovered
