Summer Lightning (13x9 in.) $45.00 The 806' S/S Charles M. Beeghly is traveling upbound in the always precarious St. Mary's River with a load of limestone, headed for the Hallet Dock in Duluth, MN. As the vessel is about to make a very sharp turn at Johnson's Point, lightning races across the northern sky during a July storm. This is the sailor's view from up high in the self unloading unit located at the vessel's stern, looking forward toward the bow. 1st IN A SERIES: A tribute to Great Lakes sailors past & present, saluting the mariners of the inland seas as they face the unrelenting forces of nature.
