All,
I grew up in Detroit and sailed around the Great Lakes in my Fathers a 30' sailboat so I have always had a soft spot in my heart for the BIG Lake Boat ore carriers that traveled the Great Lakes, especially the Edmond B. FitzGerald. The last picture shows blue water over the ship.
Attached are five really good photos of a big ore carrier in the rough waters of Lake Superior. Many a Captain has said that Lake Superior is at times worse that the Ocean. By the way, I know that a boat is something carried on a ship but still, we called 'em Lake Boats.
