Lake Michigan Crossing to Beaver Island, '25

Very nice Drew, thanks to you and your lady for sharing. You picked the right day to venture out. One thing about The Great Lakes, they can get real ugly in a very short period of time. Also nice work on getting your girl ready for the cruise.(y)
 
Thats what I like! Going to different places. Just be safe out there. I worry about you small boaters. I was one! I first installed a VHF, than radar and more. There are some great tools out there.
 
A long time ago, I crossed Lake Erie from Port Colborne, Ontario to Silver Creek [Sunset Bay], NY. It was my first lake crossing. I loved doing it but I was a little nervous as land disappeared from both horizons.

Thanks for the video---nice adventure.

Thanks Denny, we are now at Munising/Pictured Rocks and had a wonderful day kayaking and diving some caves. Lake Superior is out of this world cool.

The water in your engine where it didn't belong reminded me of mine.I was doing my decomition at the end of one season when I found some water on my #2 spark plug when I pulled it out. So a good friend of mine (this was beyond my pay scale) pulled the heads. In 1985 Chevy wanted to lighten up their 350, so they put on aluminum heads, and guess what. Being that steel and aluminum do not like each other, the rust eat the gasket which let water into my #2 cylinder. Luckley it did not hurt the cylinder walls, they polished up. My friend is a very talented Mechanic. The way that he set the tappets was, when he took it apart, he said that he counted the threads. So when he put it back together, he counted the threads.
Put the valve covers back on, started her up, ran like a well oiled sewing machine. Today with 2006 hrs on her, she still purrs like a kitten.
