 The Antarctic research ship Hero getting some help from the Umpqua River Navigation towboat Juno IV after she ran aground trying to leave the dock in Reedsport, Oregon where she had been on display for an Arctic exploration museum that never got off the ground. A couple who own a shipyard on the Columbia bought Hero and she will be rebuilt as a yacht. (43K) | |
