Upbound Wind Turbines



Upbound on Monday night, these wind turbine tower units passed by White Rock Shoal right around sunset time. The white tubes are probably towers for a new windfarm somewhere beyond the Great Lakes. This shop, a "saltie" or oceangoing vessel is rigged for carrying on deck loads. It could be headed for a port as far away as Duluth, Minnesota. From there the turbine towers might move via semitrailer or railroad to their eventual destination.
