10 day cruise end of July

The end of July we took a ten day cruise across Lake Michigan. The first day we sailed from Fish Creek to Washington Island with two other FBoats. Here a "flotilla" of 3 31' FBoats is at anchor in Peterson Bay, Washington Island. The boats are Noor, owned by Barb and Les Raduenz, an beautiful F9A, owned by its builders from Minnesota and kimosabi.





We then sailed across Lake Michigan to South Manitou Island Michigan and from there to Northport, MI.

Here, kimosabi is at the end of the dock in Northport.





From there we sailed to Traverse City and spent two nights at the municipal marina, just missing Madonna's visit to the annual film festival that is held there.

Here Cath sits by some artwork along the Traverse City River Walk.

From there we sailed to Leland, spending 6 hours in the harbor to have lunch and roam around. At 8 PM we decided to head 35 miles south to Frankfort where we spent town nights on the hook before heading home.

We really liked the expensive trolley bikes...





There are allot of neat older homes in Frankfort...
