The record — long form
The Kamloops is the '27 — the December 7 that's the last, the 22 who died. The ice was the load — the wire that's the deck cargo, the '20 below' that's the temperature. The '77 was the find — the 50 years that's the missing, the 'big shadow' that's the Engelbrecht.
The Isle Royale is the grave — the 'Twelve O'Clock Point' that's the location, the 'all hands' that's the loss. The ghost is the crew — the 'old man' that's the seen, the engine room that's the working. The Kamloops is the preserved — the cold that's the Superior, the mystery that's the 50 years.
The file keeps the Kamloops: the 1927 sinking, the 22 dead, the '77 discovery, and the Isle Royale wreck.
The Kamloops is the archive's Lake Superior file — the lost ship.
