Best Answer

The largest was the Edmund Fitzgerald, which sank in November of 1975 with the loss of all hands in Lake Superior, about 20 miles NW of Whitefish Point, in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. It was immortalized in the song by Gordon Lightfoot.

The Edmund Fitzgerald at 720 feet long was the largest followed by the Cypus (420 feet long) and the John B. Cowle (420 feet long) which sank around the turn of the last century.
