Talk:Lightship

message: Just wondering about the Mooring section on this page. I recently read The Lighthouse Stevensons by Bella Bathurst and I didn't get the impression from that book that Stevenson invented the mushroom anchor. What is the source for the claim that Stevenson invented the mushroom anchor?
:As an aside, I wanted to add that I've often heard it said that many lightships were converted from old whale catchers. Is this true? ▫Bad▫harlick♠ 15:04, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

This lightship was destroyed on Lake Huron.U.S. Coast Guard on lighthouses and lightships.  It isn't listed, and it obviously should be.  It's being offsite was a contributing factor in the loss of the Matthew Andrews, which is listed.
