Catching the Griffon

The next ship was following fairly closely to the Frontenac.
 I also saw that the Griffon was heading down.  Normally I don't see her unless she is breaking ice.
 So I was kind of nice to not see her in the ice.
 She was heading down from Sarnia to Amherstburg.  Amherstburg is better known as Boblo Island.  It is at the mouth of the Detroit River.
 I think she was doing buoy tending and is close to being done.
 I also think they are positioning her in case there is some ice.  It seems like western Lake Erie is one of the places where there is quite a bit of ice.
 A beam shot.
And one more shot as she continues down to Amherstburg.  I think her journey would have been about three hours longer.
