Day 25 – Thursday, June 17, 2010

N – 46° 29.974’
W – 084° 20.254’
Sault Ste. Marie, MI

The weather was foggy and some what marginal to enter Lake Superior so John and I preformed some scheduled engine maintenance.

We walked into town and found a small restaurant that serves the local trade and had a large breakfast / brunch. We spent the next hour and a half shopping for parts and hardware for our boars.

Don and Kitty have departed from John and Barbs boat and are heading home to Virginia. I think they will rejoin the Flints later in the trip.

Not much happening here with the exception of 1000 foot ships passing close to our marina which is very interesting! It’s amazing to watch them slip into and out of the locks.

Tomorrow we will meet in the Harbor Masters office at 8 am to check the weather and sea conditions for the next 50 miles. From here to Whitefish Point the ship traffic is heavy with ever changing weather conditions. Friday is looking marginal --- Saturday is looking better!
