The Edward M. Cotter is a historic fireboat and icebreaker built in 1900. Originally named the W.S. Grattan and then the Firefighter, it became the Edward M. Cotter in 1954. It is the oldest operating fireboat on the Great Lakes and oldest in the United States. The boat you see today was actually rebuilt in 1930 after it exploded in 1928. The Edward M. Cotter is on the U.S. Register of Historic Places (which can be logged here (
