Lake Saint Clair Peeps

Well fellas looks like this weekend might be it for the season..looks good till Sunday night then fox 2 is showing possible storms from then till as far forward as they can..
I'm thinking about skipping the marina/boat this weekend. I won't know what to do there if it's not raining and cloudy:D. I sure hope I don't have to use any of that April gas I put in it;):D.
 
We had a great weekend down at Milliken State Harbor and had a great show Monday night.
Hope everyone has a great upcoming 4th of July holiday.
Joe (Ezsteps), I believe I will see you up at Port Austin on July 4th. Have a safe trip up!

Nice pics Brent.
Our plan is to leave out of Beacon Cove on the 3rd between 5 and 6 p.m. and stay in Port Huron that night. So we should be to Port Austin pretty early on the 4th. I'll be in a 98' 400DB with tan canvas. I'll keep an eye out for ya.
Are you traveling alone or have other boats with you? If you happen to see a 42 Silverton and a 400DB running together out on the lake more than likely we'll be on channel 72. Looking forward to having a beer or 2 with ya.
Have a safe trip.

Hey Joe,
We are traveling with two other boats. 34 Four Winds and a 32 Wellcraft.
We are heading out this Saturday, making our way to Caseville with a quick stopover in Port Sanilac. We plan on heading out of Caseville on July 3rd, heading over to Port Austin and will be there until Saturday July 6th. Unless the forecast dictates we should pull out on Friday July 5th (if that Saturday / Sunday don't look good for traveling back home). So, I will be there when you arrive and will keep my eyes peeled for you guys as you come in.
 
Hey guys ,i am not from lake st claire but will be in port austin some time next week also 37 express" sun star".Glen
 
We'll look for ya and if you see a 400DB named Debby's Bigger Bobber stop by and say hi.
We'll be there 4th and the 5th. Leaving out on the 6th for Tawas. Have a safe trip Glen
 
The news just showed Ariel pics of Jobbie Nooner today. Didn’t seem there were a lot of boats. ...high water the problem Or fake news?... you guys are a finicky group... has to be just the right amount of sun... right amount of wind... right amount of bugs and evidently the right water level?... what the heck?

Blueone the water level had nothing to do with me not being there. I went in 2014 and swore that would be my last time. Way to much stupidity out there for me. I saw the channel 7 chopper footage also. Definitely alot less boats than usual. I had friends out there and they said a storm/wind roll in and basically cause a 200 boat pile up. Him and alot of boats coming into the marina at the end of the day had quite a bit of damage on them. Sounds like it was a bigger $%#@ show than usual. He said he's been going for 14 years straight and has never seen anything like yesterday. I must say though the water level is making rafting off and hanging in the bay tough.

I saw videos of the wind that came through from that storm. Boats were crunching together. Lots of damage
 
Wheres all my peeps..come on now the 4th of July vacation is over..back to regularly scheduled life!
Hey GasketGuy. I saw Joe (Ezsteps) up in Port Austin Thursday and Friday of last week. We took off Saturday and I think he and his group were heading to Canada for this week.
Joe is a cool guy. I seem to run into him in the visiting ports and he is usually on someone else's boat. I have meet him a few times but haven't ever seen his boat. Haha.

I'll vouch for joe he does actually have a boat lmao..or atleast I always see him standing by the same boat when I see him at the marina! Him and his wife are great peeps! How was Port Austin this trip Brent? My buddy from marina was up monday threw Wednesday said it was kinda dead.
 
I couldnt get a slip in port austin last week unless i took a wall spot on bird creek,so we stayed in bay city for our vacation.we got out a few times but when those ne winds picked up it was making the saginaw river flow backwards and we lost power to 7 pedistals on our dock.The water was 6 inches from going over the sidewalks and one guy that has several slips for his 56 carver had knee deep water on his on the water patio.
