In the Mariner's case, maybe setting the blocks for her in the drydock? Just a guess.....

Can anyone out there explain why both the American Mariner traversed the Door county coastline to Kewaunee county for 2 -3 days prior to coming into Bay Ship. The Sykes did the same thing but only for a day. The Sykes went down the lake to about Sheboygan before turning around and coming back and entering the Sturgeon Bay Ship Canal. Just wondering.9

Probably cleaning out ballast tanks

Bay Ship has filled up with:

American Mariner - moved into the large graving dock today
Stewart J. Cort - berth 15
Walter J. McCarthy - berth 15 #2
Burns Harbor - berth 15 #3
GL Ostrander - berth 11
Joyce L. VanEnkevort - berth 11 #2
Great Lakes Trader - berth 10
New build LNG barge and a Casino boat - berth 9
Casino boat - berth 4
Joseph L. Block - berth 3
Wilfred Sykes - berth 2

The Joseph L. Block arrived at Bay Ship today, coming in from the lake side and backing in to Berth 3.

It looks like the Stewart J. Cort is inbound, as are the Joyce L. VanEnkevort/Great Lakes Trader, Walter J. McCarthy and the Burns Harbor - all showing Sturgeon Bay on AIS.
