ReplyDeleteI gotta email from Jeffrey I thought you might like it Dennis. I sent it too you.
ReplyDeleteAnd here we go again!
ReplyDeleteHey, Den! Do you know if these warnings are for the Twin Ports? If so, it seems odd that they would issue such warnings from the NWS office in Marquette rather than from the Duluth office doesn't it? Have a happy and safe New Year, sir!
ReplyDeleteHi Dennis Do you know why the CN plant in Duluth isn't taking any customers? I saw the Great Lakes Trader sit in the Duluth Harbor for 2 days waiting to get in at Two Harbors. She could have loaded at the CN facility and been on her way. Do you know if it is shut down? Thank you. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteDo you know what ships will be spending their winter layup in Duluth this year?
ReplyDeleteNothingYet on the winter lay-up schedule. You can check Boatnerds.com for the current schedule.
DeleteThere's a 2018 Winter Lay-Up link on the "Maps" link - right sidebar of this page!
DeleteI believe that schedule was for last year.
