Hi Everybody! We just bought our first trawler, a GB32, on Western Lake Superior. This June we plan to go over to Mackinaw City, starting at Bayfield WI. Thereafter we will cruise the Ontario North Channel and then go south to Detroit. Having never cruised Lake Superior, I have had a good look at the charts and Google Earth to scope out the south shore. The main stopping places are obvious: Houghton, Marquette, Munising, Grand Marais, etc. It looks pretty barren, not a lot of little inlets and bays. If you have been on this stretch, I really would appreciate tips about little nooks we can get into, either to tie up or anchor. I have had a lot of experience doing this, but not on Superior. Assuming that the lake is quiet or that the breeze is from the south, are there any places that are particularly good for pulling in close to the shore and anchoring? Perry
