The SS Sagamore (1892) is reported to be the best example of a whaleback barge among Great Lakes shipwrecks. Only 48 whalebacks ever existed on the Great Lakes. She sank in 1901 in the shipping lane near the Soo Locks when she was rammed by the steel steamer Northern Queen in one of Whitefish Bay's notorious fogs. Her Captain and two crewmembers went down with her. Artifacts from her wreck were illegally removed in the 1980s.
