They are so large they can never leave the Great Lakes, and so, as they are therefore not ocean-going, they are called boats. But they can face severe weather as rough as almost any on the ocean, especially this time of year. (Edmund Fitzgerald, anyone?) I'm guessing that one is the Paul R Tregurtha, the largest operating laker at 1,013.5 ft.Calli Arcalenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11787852.post-89146086239572028192008-03-16T15:34:00.000-07:002008-03-16T15:34:00.000-07:00Actually the last picture is a fishing boat from the netherlands (Z indicates Zierikzee or so)Rotsbloknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11787852.post-91572463458629838992007-01-09T18:01:00.000-08:002007-01-09T18:01:00.000-08:00Actually the people on the video are green peace activist trying to stop the other boat. The capitain from the big one decided to drop the anchor on them and well, no one cares for green peace (and those were international seas) so sews didn´t proceed.Zavalanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11787852.post-78072332338998054762006-12-22T07:57:00.000-08:002006-12-22T07:57:00.000-08:00thats crazy.
