Hard for me to imagine 20' fresh water waves. I have no trouble remembering what 60' waves looked and felt like in the North Sea.

Well, they taste good when they hit you in the face.

Only reason I would want to get fired right now is to load up and drag the boat to Key West.....not so much to see waves.

I still think that side of Lake Michigan has some of the most beautiful beaches in the country during the summer anyway.

Did Benton Harbor ever improve or is it still s dump?

The witch is late...the Edmond Fitzgerald sunk in 35 footers on Superior, which by the way just had a big anniversary. Could very well be the most wicked lake on the planet.

Check this out...14ft and counting

and Grandhaven...pay attention the pier house on the left!

Was in Benton Harbor, South Haven and Douglas a couple weeks ago. Went out on a couple piers and wondered how much of a pounding they have to take . . . . guess that answers it

maybe its just me but i think it would be a lot of fun to be in that house at the end of the pier lol
