The Presque Isle is a Tug/Boat? That's one heck of a tug/boat. Very interesting & very beautiful shot.

The Tug/Barge combination is becoming quite popular on the lakes, they can have a much smaller crew. They do ride a lot rougher than a normal boat though.

I know this is a railroad picture collection, but I can just visualize a movie "Caddyshack: Minnesota", with the late Rodney Daingerfield bringing the "Presque Isle" to a full stop right before careening into one of the beautiful looking sailboats in the distance on those July-pristine waters, then shouting "Drop anchor!" (While a CP remote diesel dutifully switches grain hoppers in the foreground at Rice's Yard, of course.)
