It's a shame Oglebay Norton went into bankruptacy and had to sell all their ships, but I'm still glad they continue to sale with ASC. Though I wish they had'nt have turned the Reserve and Buckeye into barges >:P
I just happened to catch this on the DSC webcam. Then saw pictures posted on Duluth shipping news the next day. Our favorite place to stay is the South Pier Inn
Nice! And just two days ago, I visited my dad at the st. lukes hospital, there is a telescope at the top window and I saw a HUGE ore carrier called the ST. Clair.
These Duluth videos that you and the other guy post are great. I watch the Duluth webcams almost every day, but these videos make it more real. My uncle Stuart worked in the dry docks there. Maybe one of you guys could post the longest ship on the great Lakes, the Paul Tregurtha. I'm not sure you could tell the extra 13 feet. All the 1000 footers look similar. Thanks from South Carolina
I do have a video of the Tregurtha that I might be able to post in a week or two. It's kinda shaky--I didn't have a tripod at the time. You really can't tell the difference between her and her sister ships, the Mesabi Miner (in the video above) and the James R. Barker (the American Spirit also has a similar design). The other 1000 footers, with the exception of the Edgar B. Speer, Steward J. Cort, and Presque Isle, fall into another class of ships that look very similar.
My hats off to choosing a wonderful easy relaxing music.I have been In Duluth a few weeks earlier and the day goes a lot slower watching these long ships.
exelent video!!!! well DONE!!!!!!!
