The M/V John J. Boland, here in Toledo, Ohio, was temporarily laid up in August due to shipping declines on the Great Lakes as a result of the current economic conditions. In late October, the Boland was brought back into service and is expected to operate through the rest of the season. The Boland is owned and operated by American Steamship Co. AMO represents the licensed officers and stewards aboard the ship.
