OK, this is a quiz, anyone know the name of the Badger's sister ship?

I've got some shots taken from aboard the Badger, John, I'll have to check for some shots of her underway steaming out of Ludington or Manitowoc harbors. I probably have one such shot or two but will have to find the slides because they're not scanned at the moment.

I'll find what I've got and post them while I look for the other.

The Badger's "sister" appears to be the SS Spartan:

Mombo wins the prize for that quiz!!!

The SS Spartan is tied up at Ludington at the landing that the Badger sails from. I'll post a couple of pics of her and the Badger some time today.

Well, I have a good photo of the SS Spartan taken at dawn last October from the stern of the Badger when I was waiting for the her to sail for Wisconsin... Does that count, John? Still looking to see if I have any of the Badger herself taken when I wasn't on board.

Here are a couple photos of the Coasties escorting the Badger out of Ludington last October on her way to Manitowoc, and a shot of the bridge looking westward with a 14 mm lens taken on the way home on that trip. And I still can't find any photos of her John although now you've put me on a blasted crusade to do so!!!
