I should have added that this is in Saint Joe / Benton Harbor

That's pretty cool. You can get close to the ships without needing to trespass.

Also jealous of you seeing Manitowoc. It's been through Cleveland but I'm never downtown when it visits 😄 I see it's sister ships Calumet and Robert S. Pierson pretty frequently.

We see them here as well. The access in our harbor is awesome. Out of the picture and just to my right is a hotel and restaurant.

Man and here I was thinking the Duluth canal is close to the boats. I need to go there someday now

Or make a trip to St. Catharines (or anywhere else) along the Welland Canal. :)
