Summary
The Beaver Island Historical Society began constructing a pole-barn-style roof over the Bob S, the old gill-net tug at the Marine Museum. The revised plan was intended first to shelter the tug’s restoration and later to provide additional museum space; the July 2005 report said work was nearly finished.
Evidence limits
The report does not provide a final completion date, grant award record, or engineering documentation.
