Title
English: Thirty-six footer Grand Marais
Description
English:

The thirty-six foot boat is in a wooden building. The boat sits on a low wheeled cradle that is on rails. The prop and rudder of the boat is visible.

Many lifeboat stations were assigned the thirty-six foot self-righting motor lifeboat as the primary rescue craft. CG 36528 was assigned to Grand Marais. These boats had a two ton keel which would right them in heavy waves. CG 36528 is now on display in the boathouse at Sand Point, which once served as the Munising motor lifeboat station.
