⚓ Today marks 50 years since the Edmund Fitzgerald was lost on Lake Superior, taking all 29 crew members with her, marking a tragedy that forever changed Great Lakes maritime operations. The lessons learned from that November night in 1975 continue to shape safety protocols, vessel design, and regulatory frameworks across the industry. As we honor the memory of Captain Ernest McSorley and his crew, join us Wednesday for "Great Lakes Maritime Legacy: 50 Years After the Edmund Fitzgerald" in partnership with the Cleveland Metropolitan Bar Association. The event features retired Coast Guard Commander John Deck III, who served as the principal Coast Guard investigator of the disaster, alongside admiralty attorneys and industry leaders as we reflect on this pivotal moment in maritime history and chart the course forward.
