We'll be watching for you.....it's a straight shot NE from Racine to
Muskegon, unless you plan to do the long thing around the bottom....(not
nearly as interesting as the northern trip up the MI coastline...) When you
want harbor information on Lake Michigan, give me a yell....

These are False Dark Mussels apparently becoming abundant due to a
couple
of
years with lots of rain. They're too small to eat, fortunately for the
Bay:^) I think there are Zebras in northern areas of the Chesapeake,
but
not down here yet. Wish they'd hurry up and get here!

Ah, so the zebra mussels have finally found you. When they first
arrive
they are a terrible PITA because there's so much food for them, but
then,
when they get things cleaned up a bit, they're not so terrible to live
with
unless you forget they are as sharp as razor blades and grab hold of
them....

Sept. Oct. is the best time for sailing on the Chessy Bay. Good
winds,
the bugs are gone, not many stinkpotters, low humidity. The one
drawback- it gets dark too early.
Have you noticed the water clearing up where you are? We've been
seeing
a
lot of little mussels on boat bottoms this summer, quite unusual.
Seems
several of the creeks hereabouts are being filtered by these little
buggers,
even to the point where subaquatic vegetation is growing back!! Our
diver
buddy said he had 10' vis in Spa Creek!!!
