I wanted to be in the engine room, so I signed on with the PM line as a wiper the first season, an oiler the second, and really enjoyed it. My love of boats lives on to this day, and I can thank the Great Lakes for that (Rise and shine on the PM line..I'll never forget that)

This is a sure sign that Spring is here to stay. The first oceangoing vessel of the 2011 shipping season arrived in the Port of Duluth-Superior this morning. The Cyprus-flagged Federal Leda (Lee-da) sailed beneath the Duluth Aerial Lift Bridge at 7:10 a.m.

Her arrival marked the first saltwater vessel (“saltie”) into the Twin Ports this year to have transited the Great Lake St. Lawrence Seaway system. Do you know when the earliest arrival of a "Saltie in Duluth was?" Find out the answer after the break.
