Tell me about the storm you survived at sea.
I'll toss one in..... if others do.

Sorry Rob and BB, maybe next subject.

Didn't we do this one last year?

Big storm, Lake Michigan, 8 footers, lightning all around, waterspouts,
halfway between Leland and Grand Traverse Bay...so much ozone in air was
unbearable...turned back before full out storm hit, rafted off to 4
other boats and watched storm rip the snot out of a bunch of lubbers
canvas that they didn't tie down...

another:
Pen****er..made it to port before storm but lots didn't..siietch wave
came through channel, pulled boats from their nachorages and
moorings..woman and children on boat swinging on anchor into another
boat and crashing with great booms while she is on radio screaming for
help..hubby had taken dinghy and gone into town and CG wouldn't let him
back out there...got CG crew and went out to save day...more canvas
strewn all over from boats on moorings and anchored...

lots more...sail Lake Michigan, sail in storms...
