This is the one I was referring to. According to the AIS she was in the Apostle Islands just off Basswood this morning. It looks like she is docked in Washburn currently.

Does anyone have any information on the supply vessel Jean C? Where is this vessel based? What type of supplies does it supply and to who? She looks like a tug, so I am guessing this vessel has a history.
