		Seawaymax vessels are 740 feet in length, 78 feet wide, (maximum 226 m length, 24 m beam) and have a draft of 26 feet.
		A number of Lake freighters larger than this size cruise the Great Lakes and cannot pass through to the Atlantic Ocean.

		The R.J. Hackett premiered the style and the second Algosoo was the final vessel designed this way.
		More recently built lakers, like the Seawaymax CSL Niagara, have a single large superstructure island right astern.
		Since the freshwater lakes are less damaging then the salt water of the oceans, many of the Lakers remain in service for long periods and the fleet has a much higher average age than the ocean-going fleet.

		In addition, although the DND exhibits a larger dollar value demand, the Coast Guard has an immediate need to replace up to eight medium-sized buoy tenders, and a sustained requirement to replace much of its fleet (including icebreakers) over the next 10-15 years.
		The vessels of the Coast Guard fleet, except the CCGS Louis S. St-Laurent, are below SEAWAYMAX size, meaning that yards in British Columbia, Ontario, Quebec, and the Atlantic Provinces could potentially fulfill virtually all such requirements, subject to competitive considerations.
		If the dimensions of the vessel were to respect SEAWAYMAX limitations (226m length, 24m beam), then Port Weller Dry Docks could also be added to this list.

		The SeawayMax CSL Laurentien is an example of ingenuity at work on the modern Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Waterway.
		It's a snug fit for the big self-unloader, her 740 feet of length and 78 feet of width filling up the huge concrete chamber, making it clear why the Laurentien, and two other of her fleet-mates, carry the SeawayMax moniker.
		They are the biggest and most technically advanced vessels the St. Lawrence Seaway has ever seen.

		The last major grounding of a ship in this area happened in 1999, when water levels were at historic lows and the 160-metre long Bahamian-registered Sunny Blossom hit bottom on the southeast tip of Wolfe Island with a cargo of caustic soda.
