Wait for It ! She gets a Thunder Bay Send Off !

 

The last voyage of the "Viking Octantis" for the 2023 Season to the Port of Thunder Bay.

 

The " Viking Octantis " came in early last evening during the Thunder Storm from Silver Islet and " anchored " Just off Richardson's Main elevator towards the Main Gap . She doesn't drop her hooks but uses her Thrusters & Global Positioning to remain static as if she was hooked to the bottom. The Sail Superior tour boat "Frodo " was out enjoying the weather with that large grounded Lightning rod sticking out of her top side. She was out past the " Federal Champlain " making her way in when I caught up with her. The 50 knot winds didn't materialize in the top half of Thunder Bay but the Cruise Ship wasn't taking any chances out off Thunder Cape and I beleive made an early dash for safe Harbour. I'm guessing she had to wait until the Stevedors and red carpet people got organized.
