Windy Easter Weekend
Well – Easter weekend kinda blew in and blew out as it is calm again for this week ahead. White caps were everywhere on the lake over the weekend with the cold wind blowing from the northeast. There was a 650′ ore boat anchored with her bow headed into the wind just off the breakwall in Two Harbors this past weekend for several hours. I can only guess that she was sitting there waiting for the evening calm before departing – probably in constant communication with the coast guard weather alerts on their VHF Marine Radios on board. The new week promises less wind which will bring out a lot of fishing boats. Hopefully they will all be properly outfitted with good communication equipment right down to their marine speakers. Safe boating. Happy Boater
