BUCKET LIST: Cross Lake Michigan - CHECK!!

We sailed across Lake Michigan! After much planning and watching the long-term weather forecast, we checked off a major accomplishment! This adventure was a dream come true. Join us on our thrilling first sailboat crossing of Lake Michigan! ??? After leaving the harbor in Chicago, we headed east to Michigan City, IN. The wind was very light and appeared to be coming at us directly from Michigan City! We decided to motor to make it before nightfall. We arrived in the evening and spent the night in the marina. Early the next morning, we headed out to New Buffalo, MI where we spent the day with family. After a good night's sleep in the marina, we got up bright and early and headed back to Chicago. The conditions were so right and we sailed the entire way. Watch as we spot the skyline after spending hours out of sight of any land! Thanks for watching! Let's connect!
