    If it's her first time here I wonder why the 2 tugs didn't meet her..They seem to meet all the other Int'l ships, even if they've been here before..Penny

      The Tyne does have bow thrusters being fairly new which I suspect could be a reason. Think some of the others require the tugs to position in the slips.

    Hi Dennis, thanks for all your hard work on our behalf. Say, do you know where all these wind turbines are coming from?

    Wind towers from Germany, blades are from Spain.

      Thanks Dennis. When compared to moving these behemoths on the Interstate Highways, lake travel sure simplifies things. We had one blade stuck on an off ramp here in So Dak recently, it was just too big!
