Not For Hire

When I learned that Engineers Day was on June 26, 2009,
(I have buddies that say this is very worthwhile).

And that the Boat Nerds were gonna be there go here and then to calendar of events

and that wonderful Kemp marina takes reservations
reservations

I made my reservation for Thursday, Fri, and Sat night (maybe Sunday too). Rollie on C-Batical will join me. We will have time to go thru the locks, see the inner workings, cruise the St. Mary's system, visit Lime Island and have some fun. More the merrier. I plan to be there Thursday thru Sunday. You can launch locally or can launch farther away to cruise a bit before you get to the Soo.

Regards, Mark

Reminder that we have two boats booked in at Kemp Marina at the Soo, and some sent regrets, and more are welcome. Some shots from recent years. Paul Tregurtha 1013 feet slides by right outside marina entrance.

Upbound ore boat and downbound saltie from Kemp marina.

Edward L. Ryerson, an older ship but one of the nicest on the lakes awaiting locking through.

Slightly smaller boat in empty Kemp marina, this was in fall, will be busier in summer by far.

A few days on the St. Mary's is good for you.

Regards,

Mark
