Well, the gales of November are coming early this year on Lake Superior.
Gale warnings are up for tomorrow with seas of 12 to 17 feet, winds up to
50 mph. The boat is already on the hard and completely winterized. But I
think we would probably stay in port anyway. But the coasties like to go
out and play in that kind of stuff -- practice for their new recruits.
But the big boys (up to 1,000' ships) likely will hunker down and stay in
port to wait it out).
