GL: Defever 49 for Loop

[jonathan olenick]

I stand corrected (again), foregot about the Welland Canal, just remember you
are playing with the BIG boys
, and a crew of three is required. Jon on
Valentine.

Your obligations are not as limited
as Jon on Valentine thinks.  The Oswego Canal will put you in Lake Ontario
then West to the Welland Canal which dumps you into Lake Erie, don't forget to
stop at Put In Bay/South Bass Island, lots of fun there.  Done this too many
times to count with vessels as big as 82'.  Capt. Mimi
