Recorded on September 18, 2010 using a Flip Video camcorder. I took the following description off a web page: R/V L.L. Smith, Jr., University of Wisconsin‐Superior The L.L. SMITH, Jr. is a 58 foot long steel tug that was built in 1950 in Superior. It is used for both research and education; hosting dozens of groups each year, from pure researchers to school kids learning rudimentary lessons in environmental issues. In addition to research and science tours, the boat is used to host tours for civic clubs, special interest groups and other groups interested in ecology, local water science and other topics lending themselves to being on the water.
