OK Bigwater, how about this!

Is this the answer you're looking for?
A "Laker" is a type of ship that trades only in the Great Lakes of North America. They usually carry grain and ore cargoes.

Thanks Bigwater!

I just researched your question. Got the answer right away. Then hunted for a photo. Found one then added the text to the bottom of the photo that described the ship.
It was fun! I was concerned though that the white type was not that readable (I could have chosen black) but it seemed to work better with the photo.
Do it again Bigwater!
