Helen B

 

HELEN B. 247050 Built at Pentwater, Michigan, in 1944 by Ed Pedersen for Fred Baginske, St. Joseph, Michigan. Originally powered with an International diesel and later repowered with a Caterpillar D-8800. In 1972, the 44-foot tug was bought by Peterson Fisheries, Muskegon, Michigan. The Caterpillar diesel was removed for use in another boat, and the Helen B. was scrapped.
