Great Lakes

There have been many an iron ore ship thst has gone to the botton on the Great Lakes. Remember the song "The Balad of the Edmund Fitzgerald".
LST-325 (Actually USNS LST-325) has seen hurricanes in the North Arlantic. I was aboard on the Davis Straights and saw 46 degree roll and the deck bow up. The ship would run up a wave unitl only the stern was still in the water and then slap hard in a troth before starting up the next wave. I was on board on my way from Greenland to Newfoundland. I have ridden out two hurricanes in the Davis Straights. One on USNS LST-325 and one aboard the Arctic Sealer. Neither was a very pleasant ride.
