Our adventure has begun! We pulled out of the Grand Haven channel at 7:00am on Monday, June 1.
For the first part of the trip we were in travel mode. (vs sightseeing mode) Full days of travel at 10 mph got us from Grand Haven
to Lake St Clair in a week. (vs 3 hours by car) Our overnights on Lake Michigan were: Portage Lake (anchored), Charlevoix (anchored), and Petoskey (marina).
We had a fun afternoon with our friend LaNell in Petoskey. From there after passing under the Mackinac Bridge we entered Lake Huron.
Our overnights on Lake Huron were Cheboygan (anchored in Duncan Bay), Harrisville (marina), and Port Sanilac (marina). From Port Sanilac we entered the St Clair River that led is into Lake St Clair. This is new territory for us and we’re impressed with the beautiful St Clair River and Lake St Clair.
ALONG THE WAY
Highlight: Beautiful weather and FLAT waters. Wow we had amazing travel conditions.
Yucky: Midge flies covering the boat in Charlevoix. Ugh! Glad we had a little blower on board to get rid of most of them.
