My wife and I recently flew from Baltimore to Minneapolis, rented a car, drove several hours to Duluth, stayed in the Canal Park Lodge at a total trip cost of THOUSANDS of dollars. And it was worth EVERY PENNY!! Thanks, Duluth, for providing us with a Bucket List experience!👍 Sam, Towson, md

Think of the Lakes like a Highway system. All the smaller Sail Boats, Pontoon Boats, Speeder boats, canoes, and all other boats used by Boaters for Recreation, those are like the cars of the lakes. Then there is the Life Guard Vessels, they are like the Police of the Waters and also the search and rescue team. Then there are larger Passenger vessels. They are like the Busses of the lake, transporting lots of people. Finally, there are the large Lake Freighters, and you can say they are the Major Semi-Trucks of the lakes, being the vessels that represent all the major commerce of the lakes. Also, the Stewart J. Cort is now smugly smiling at his fleet mate the James R. Barker because he too now has a similar, and fantastic sounding horn.

Those docks took days to load even small ships, and because of their design they couldn’t modernize them like the Duluth and Two Harbors docks, so they built a new one instead.

I will have to investigate that further by watching 👀 your Michipicoten video again 👍 and I Love ❤️ Your videos not Like 👍 them along with all the added information and history on the ships!
