On June 18, 2008, the Asiaborg was up bound past here. The ship did not appear in my ship bible, "Know Your Ships". However, an Internet search showed that it was member of the Wagenborg Shipping family from the Netherlands. Further investigation showed that this is the Asiaborg's second trip to the Great Lakes. Early in May and then again this week she was delivering wind turbine parts from Siemans in Denmark and then loading with grain before departing. You can see some good pictures from Duluth at this site:

There are several sister ships in this fleet that are common sights on the Great Lakes.
