Well, The Jackson didn't get a load in Sandusky. Bound for Marquette now I think. My friend says they have 2 new buckets. I guess that's propellers. Maybe I'll learn what everything is called one day! lol

Buckets are the replaceable blades on the propeller hub.

Jackson just departed.

Actually, look at the Register cam, they are tilted forward now for propellers to be changed or something. You can see she's tilted on the cam.
I think they will be getting a load before they leave though.

The Jackson got into Sandusky. I think she's suppose to be getting some work done. Saw her when she came in.

What brings you to the above conclusion? Might it be possible that Jackson is picking something up for a back-haul?

Hi,
Actually, they did have to slow down so they wouldn't have to anchor.

From what I can tell, it looks like she may have had to either slow down for the Detroit Fireworks.
