I would also say that it is the Detroit Edison rafted to the Blough. I have attached a photo from my collection taken by Wendell Wilke in April of 1985 that shows the Edison rafted to the Blough at Sturgeon Bay. Both ships were in long term lay up at the time, with the Detroit Edison going to scrap and the Blough returning to service in 1986 after sitting idle since 1981. If memory serves me right, there was some fear during this timeframe that the Blough was done as a result of the dramatic downturn in the domestic steel industry.
