Hello Larry. No Lake Erie seems to be in not too bad shape. I sail on an
oil tanker on the Great Lakes and we see quite a few fishing boats on
Lake Erie. The water is not good enough for using directly as drinking
water as in various parts of Lake Superior for example.
I see you are a ham. Been a ham for about 10 years now. In the process
of restoring a 27' Vega. Home here is Nova Scotia and will be sailing
out of Chester. Colin...



Thanks and nice to meet you, Colin. Yeah, I've been a ham since 1957. I
was 11. It's been a great hobby, ruined my whole life. Let me know if
you're ever in Charleston. Last week we hosted a ham from Switzerland at
our old timer's breakfast. Always lots of fun to breakfast with hams from
all over the world.
