The Mesabi Miner Passes By

 This is a ship that I was not expecting to see.

She passes the American Century.
When I checked AIS, she was getting fuel at Mistersky.  I had no idea how long there was there, so I had no idea if I was going to see her.
I think she was coming up from Cleveland.
She was heading up to the Superior dock.  I think she is picking up a load of coal there because she is head back to St. Clair.
It was pretty cool to see her.
I like this style of the 1000 footer.
She continues up.  It will be a close to 2 day journey for her return trip from this point.
A sailboat passes by.
Another boat passes by.
And the flag on her stern gives an indication of the wind.
One more shot before the next ship.
