Herbie the Love Boat

And this is the ship that I wanted to catch.

 As I looked at AIS, I saw that the Herbert C. Jackson was just passing Marine City.

 Experience tells me that puts her about 3 hours from Detroit.  So I didn't really have to rush to get down to Detroit to catch her.  I'm glad I got there a little early, as I wouldn't have caught the other two ships.  It has been a while since I've caught more than two ships in an outing.  Mainly because I haven't spent alot of time each time I go out.

 At any rate, the Jackson was on her way down to Cleveland.  I kind of wish I could have caught her there as it's a pretty nice sight there.

 I think she picked up her load in Duluth which likely means it was taconite.

 From Detroit, it is about another 7 to 8 hours to Cleveland.  And as I type this, she is unloading in Toledo.

 I'm not sure where she will head after that.

 But at any rate, it was nice to catch her.
