One of the most unique looking ships on the great lakes is the Roger Blough, at 858 feet overall and a beam of 105 feet it truly gives it a distinct look of a large modern ship with the classic looks of an old laker with the pilot house on the bow and aft cabins. The Roger Blough is seen here entering the St. Clair river at Sarnia on a rare trip in these parts.

The Arthur M Anderson about to enter the St. Clair River at Sarnia, the Anderson has the distinction of beeing the last ship to be in contact with the "big Fitz" before it sank in Lake Superior in 1975. The Anderson is also one of three sister ships still sailing together with their original names since 1952 the others being Cason J. Callaway and Philip R. Clarke.
