Well we stayed one more day because of inclement weather. Probably could have gone but decided to stay, since the winds were coming from the west for most of the day. Would have taken the seas on the beam for the whole way which would not be fun. Better save than sorry. We are leaving early tomorrow morning - like around 6 and hope to make it to Muskegon by around 1 where we will tie up tightly. Thursday night it is expected that the wind will increase to 30 - 40 knts and the seas will build up to 12 feet. Gale force winds are predicted for Friday and Saturday so we will be locked in again for a couple of days. We want to get as far south as possible when the seas are down for a day.
Tonight a 47 foot vessel came in about 9:30 looking for space. It was being delivered to Duluth which means they have to travel the length of Superior as well as Michigan. Good Luck at this time of year.
The guy in the slip next to me is leaving at 10 tonight to travel south. The seas are only supposed to be 1 foot tonight building 2 to 3 tomorrow.
