Being from the Great Lakes area, I would love to see some of the "ore boats", as we call them, as well as some of the area to sail them in. The St. Marys River would be a fine location to offer. It has sea going vessels, as well as the lakers sailing it. It contects Lake Superior with the lower lakes, and has plenty of recreational traffic as well. Plenty of resources to make many a fine mission for the players..from tight handling of large freighters through the locks at the Soo, Pilot transfers, to pleasure boating..with a few tour boats thrown in. I watch ships there all the time, and I have attached a few photos which I took last weekend. I hope you enjoy!!
Best Regards,
Galen
