Kilo's Canceled
The weather in Muskegon today just wouldn't cooperate. First, fog this morning. Then sunshine and a light breeze. Then a whole s$!t load of fog and a pretty significant breeze for the runs. After Bacardi made two runs, they decided it just wasn't going to work out. As far as I know, they will try again tomorrow at 12:00, if the weather is good. But the forcast is calling for possible thunderstorms. We'll see.
By the way - Bacardi's runs were 176 & 177

I talked to the guys in the Callahan Marine Zodiak as they were pulling up the course markers on Muskegon Lake on Saturday evening. I asked them what time they were going to run on Sunday and the answer I got was they were NOT going to run on Sunday.

They got hosed! the coasty's wouldn't let them wait out the fog the window was from 3-5 and they shut them down at 3:45 if we waited another 30 min. or so it would have cleared. Better luck next time sure was cool to see all that hardware!
Pier 57 even gave a couple rides to some of the guys at Great Lakes Sunday afternoon...way cool!!!
