Default Traverse City to Bay Harbor Lunch Run August 9th 2014!

https://www.facebook.com/traversecit..._type=bookmark


Cruise from Traverse City To Bay Harbor for Lunch at Knot Just a Bar! More boats will join us just outside of Charlevoix. Then Stop along the way to swim and relax. Round Trip will be about 140 miles of Offshore Powerboating at its best!

Meet by 10:45 a.m. around Red Buoy 8 which is just outside Elmwood Boat Launch to the east.

Marinas

Clinch Marina downtown Traverse City. Best marina if overnighting on your boat and want to walk downtown.

Elmwood Township Marina and BOAT LAUNCH. Great marina to overnight but also the NICEST BOAT RAMP to launch. Trailer parking available ($10 a night or included with boat slip)

If the weather holds, we should be heading out of Elk Rapids toward St. Ignace that day. Might try to meet on the way and have lunch with everyone to meet you. We're slow, (cruise about 40mph), so you all can stop and get a swim in and still beat us to Knot Just a Bar.

Weather looks great. we might be able to swing and join for lunch on the way from Elk Rapids to St Ignace.

Any idea on lunch time? We'd plan to join in somewhere north of Charlevoix. Or, I should say, plan to have you all pass us somewhere north of CVX. Damn, should've gotten a Fastech hulled Formula!

Cheers

We should be floating on lake Michigan in front of charlevoix around 12 noon. Stop for a swim and group up with more boats then off to bay harbor!

Glboatdriver you will be fine multiple boats are only cruising around 40-50.
