The first 50 mile voyage was great. The weather was perfect – low boat traffic, low wind, and sunny. In spite of boating on Lake St Clair for 35 years, I had never taken a ride up the somewhat scenic St Clair River.
Passing thru Port Huron under the Blue Water Bridge was interesting. The current and wind increased dramatically as approaching the mouth of Lake Huron. Once on Lake Huron the pace slowed down to a nice 5-10 kts and 1/2 ft waves (yea, first day on Huron).
We spent the afternoon of arrival with retired FCA friends Ken & Kathy Luchkovitz.

Lake Huron – Lots of water to the East !
That is a strange cloud line in the distance, not Land.

Ken,
Repeat of the response I sent below via phone, sending this one by computer. The Old Vessel was standing tall, looking good – what was your favorite memory of the Four Winns ?
