The steel hulled Courtney Sue has seen 65 years of work and still heads out before sunrise in search of fish on Lake Superior. The Courtney Sue is 39.4 feet in length and 4.2 feet in depth which was built by the Hugh Lee Iron Works in Saginaw, Michigan in 1948 for the Halvorson Fisheries in Cornucopia, Wisconsin.
