Coming from the east side of Cleveland, the freighters up there I thought were huge but those ones were only used in the Great Lakes. Now being in Florida, I swear the ocean bound freighters are 3x the size and the wake is gigantic. When we anchor off of Egmont Key and the freighters come through the shipping channel, their wake carries several hundred yards and you can see it coming in the distance. I like to go on marinetraffic.com and see where some of the freighters I have seen pass by or that are docked at the Tampa Port are coming from, or going to. Gets the kids interested too, and anytime the kids are interested, that’s a good day!Fishing with my son just outside of Mobile bay.
