The Federal Sakura

It was a little while for the next ship to appear but I decided to stick around because another ship would appear shortly after her.  The other ship hasn't appeared on this blog, so I figured that I would catch her too.

 The other ship was a saltie, so the Federal Sakura was preceded by the Huron Belle pilot boat.

 The Federal Sakura was heading up to Thunder Bay.  I presume that she is going to pick up a load of grain to deliver to Europe probably.

 I'm kind of liking the foreign ships.

 I couldn't get a beam shot.

 She passes under the Blue Water Bridge.

 The weather was starting to get rough again.

And a front started to move in.

Next up is the Federal Sakura.

 Surprisingly, this is a ship that has never appeared on this blog.  She's a salty of course and like many salties, she's not registered in the country that owns her. 

 The Federal Sakura was built in 2005 but I'm not sure where she was built.  She looks like other ships owned by Federal Navigation.

 I kind of liked the framing, so I tried another angle.

 A more or less fuller shot of her.

 A closer shot of her.

 And she's just in front of the Ren Cen.

One more shot of her.
