Friday - August 20, 2010

Here we sit. Cannot leave the port without the cruising permit. May take from 4 to 7 days. The issue is foreign flagged vessels which include Canadians must have cruising permit. American vessels returning to the US have no problem, so it has really not been something raised or answered when I posed a question on the Loopers website about obtaining a US boat decal which I did obtain. Apparently this was not enough paperwork to make non-US persons to go through.

However all being well, we still hope to make Chicago by September 7 or 8. That is about 19 days from now. I think we can anticipate some bad weather days as we travel down Lake Michigan but we will have to see.
