Notes and pictures from the Lake Erie portion of the "Mighty Quinn" Travels

Friday, May 30th, 2008
Since Wednesday, we have been helping Chuck Finn sail his boat, "Mighty Quinn" to Duluth, MN be doing the Lake Erie segment. It is Friday night and we are in Lorain, OH to wait out the passage of a storm system. I think we will stay here Saturday as well.

So far, we have spent Wednesday night anchored off Long Point on the Canadian shore about 40 miles west of Port Colborne, ON. We then sailed south and west past Erie, PA on the US side and cleared customs at Ashtabula, OH, spending the night on the town dock. Today we were able sail directly to Lorain, OH about 30 miles past Cleveland on a single tack and are tucked in at Spitzer Lakeside Marine. It is just starting to rain. Below are some pictures of the travels so far.
