The first storm of the 2023 Lake Superior Gales. They’re getting started a few weeks early this year, which may prove interesting, this might end up looking relatively calm so stay tuned… more to come!

The storm made a dramatic departure for the Paul R Tregurtha, which for over 40 years now has been the world’s longest and largest freshwater vessel at 1,013.5ft in length and 105ft wide. She is departing with a full load of 68,000 tons of coal, bound for Detroit MI.
