Add bad water quality to list.

Must be in Lake Winnebago? I can smell it from Hwy 41 when driving past.
only been in that lake once and won't be back.
Go a little South to Green Lake, for better water quality. just my 2 cents.
should be good boating this weekend, water is still a little chilly on Big Green.

Summer never showed. Boat goes into heated storage October 20. Lake Michigan water up 20 plus inches but not a day in the 90's. Oh well.

Winterized last weekend, storage this weekend. Put whopping 16 hrs on this summer.:(
Working to many hrs. Wife's schedule sucked too. We use to put on over 50 hrs. a yr. Maybe next year.

Got out for the last time (probably) on Sunday. Lake Michigan was flat, sun was shining, we ran from East Chicago to Michigan City for lunch. Pictured is me eating dessert...Yamaha40th's 42 Fountain, lol.

It did seem like summer just never arrived this year, but we still put 60 or 70 hours on the boat in IL, IN, WI, MI, OH and FL.

Boating season just extended. Our marina closes Oct.15. So another marina that is courting me said come on over, we are open until Nov.3 check us out!!! No charge. So Sunday I will do a color tour up the west side of Lake Michigan then return to Keenan Marina until Nov.3. They will lift my boat out at that time and put into heated storage. I like the word "Free" and "extended".

Well, of course I'd like to join you on the tour. I have a hockey tournament that day, however. Can we do it on Monday instead?

looking at the Spring lake/Grand Haven web cam and still a bunch of boats are in the water. my slip is the 8th one down on the left of the flag pole. empty. Thank you John for putting this camera on your site. Management of the marina knows it's here and refers the boaters to your site. We actually talk sledding with a group all summer long. Amazing how many boater/biker/sledders there are.
