<<Great Lakes freighters are not the same as the freighters that sail the oceans. >>

Right. I spent 3 summers on a boat on the Great Lakes and learned the profiles of the ocean vs fresh water vessels. Actually the lake boats get hit harder in storms than the saltwater boats do. Got to go on a midnight run that shifted pilots from one boat to another. Great adventure for a kid.
