What happened to ''the sea of Mich.''?

Jim stupidly assumes:
if they were sailing their Mac near the Gulf coast as I will be, instead
of on a lake, there would be plenty of wind to keep them sailing.

Haven't sailed much on Lake Michigan, have you? I think in all the 26
years
we've been sailing I've seen maybe 3-4 days when there was actually no
wind
and if, as you say, you've lurked here for a long while, you will have
read
some of the harrowing accounts of the weather systems that plague Lake
Michigan....Muskegon Lake is just the outflow of the Muskegon River where
the marinas are sheltered...the Gulf, weather wise, is not comparable to
Lake Michigan. Lake Michigan is much more difficult to sail....
