The boat that really dragged me down was the Munson. I was hoping to catch her last week but I was only to catch her stern as she was heading up Lake Huron.
She had an eventful time since that. Apparently, she hit the wall while she was in Gary. But the damage wasn't that serious as she was heading from Gary in the picture.
I thought it was odd that she was riding so high. I didn't realize at the time I took these pictures why.
She was heading down to Toledo. I thought she had a load of iron when I first saw her on Marine Traffic. I thought she was delivering to the iron mill there.
Clearly that wasn't the case. As I looked at AIS this morning, I saw she was at Ironhead Fabricating in Toledo.
They have a drydock, which I think means that the Munson is going to get some work. I'm actually surprised that Gary doesn't have a dry dock. I guess I'm also surprised she didn't go to Bay Shipbuilding. It seems that is where most of the work gets done on the Great Lakes.
Anyway, she looks better than many other ships on the Lakes.
So I hope it is a quick repair.
One more shot with my normal camera.
Then I switched to my drone.
I kind of like this shot with Detroit in the back ground.
She makes her way past.
I like this shot too.
Trying to get a beam shot but I like this one a little better.
The beam shot.
She passes by with the Gordie Howe Bridge in the background.
The span is complete. They have to finish the approaches.
