A Wolverine by Any Other Name

 Next up is my last boat of the day.

She was also fairly close.  In fact, if the Mariner hadn't taken a wide berth, I could have gotten a passing shot.
I'm not sure where the Pierson was heading from but her AIS said she was heading to Thessalon.  That is to the north of Detour.
I'm not sure if she is taking something there or picking up something.
Judging by her anchor pockets, I would say she is loaded which means she is delivering something.
Thessalon is fairly close to Sudbury.  And Subury has a nickel mine.
I'm not sure if nickel is delivered by ship though.
Anyway, the Pierson used to be known as the Wolverine when she was owned by her previous company.
I wish that named would have stayed because it's a cool name.
Then I switched to my drone.
I didn't get close this time.

The beam shot.
And she continues on her way.
One last shot.

It was a pretty cool day.  I got to catch the Anderson on a day that will remain in her history.  I got to see a bunch of ships and I was able to hook up with a fellow boatnerd.  All made for a good day.
