Well, the Soo Locks are open and that means the shipping season is in earnest now. It was sunny on Saturday, so I decided to head down to Belle Isle to catch a couple of ships.
First up was the Blair McKeil.
She is owned by McKeil Marine out of Toronto. I will have to say that they have nice looking ships.
She is headed up to Baie Comeau which is where the waters start to get a little on the brackish side.
I think she is carrying asphalt, but I am not sure.
At anyrate, as I type this post, she is still on her way to Baie Comeau. I think it is roughly a 3 or 4 day journey from Detroit.
Getting close to the beam shot.
And the beam shot.
I would have brought my drone down but it was a little on the windy side and my drone doesn't do wind too well.
She pulls away.
You can see the next ship.
And the next ship gets a little closer.
