Missabe Morning
(24.5x18.25 in) $3000.00 |
| The sun is about to break the eastern horizon encompassing the grain terminals and sprawling Midwest Energy Terminal of Superior, WI as the Great Lakes Fleet vessel S/S Philip R. Clarke cautiously approaches the west side of the Missabe (now Canadian National) Dock #6 in Duluth, MN. The 767' vessel is about to unload a split load of Michigan limestone/dolomite before loading taconite pellets destined for Lorain, OH. The 1st mate is in the pilothouse wing, scanning the dock area with binoculars where the Clarke will tie up as 2 Able Bodied Seamen are readying to drop a line hander to the Dock to secure the vessel while still another crewman loosens hatch clamps on the main deck. |
