Lake Huron Aug 10-15

Coming into Detroit. The Detroit River was about 24 miles long and had a pretty good current, naturally against us.


The Canadian side of the Detroit River. We could travel in Canadian waters as long as we didn't touch shore.
A few big ships coming out of Detroit.


I think it would be a blast to get launched in there escape/life raft.


Nice sunset behind Maggie Jo. In-Vince-able was traveling with us.
In Saint Clair Shores MI I needed some new hinges for the head (toilet) seat. After two marine stores and two hardware store I bought the whole seat to get the hinges. Cheaper and in-stock. Nice to have E-Bikes when running errands.


After I unpacked the seat Angie wanted to try in out on the bike.
Traveling with In-Vince-Able from Grand Haven MI.



This is how I like to see sunrises and travel on calm seas.


No Buoy bells today.
We stopped in Rogers City MI. This where Angie lived for a year with her cousins 46 years ago.
 She still knows everyone in town (almost). Very nice town and marina.

 

In Mackinaw City MI we spent a few day for the winds and waves to settle on Lake Michigan.
We met-up with some looper friends Laurie & Roger on Reality that we had been with previously in Joe Wheeler AL, and Florida Keys. They sold there Defever boat in Florida and bought a Mainship Pilot 430 in Wisconsin and were heading back East and South.
This marina in Mackinaw City was the first ever marina we stayed in after buying Maggie Jo three years prior. We could have declared that we crossed our wake (completed the loop) but we are waiting  for Sturgeon Bay.
