Hi everyone! As the ice begins to melt, I am excited to tell you of my next adventure. My two great hobbies are boating (obviously) and competing in Ironman triathlons. This year, however, I've qualified to be on the team that will swim the straits of Macinaw on Labor Day while the "sane" people are walking the bridge. Naturally I figured the only way to make this more epic is to take my 360 DA to the venue. I've had this lovely beast of a boat for five years now, and I think I'm ready to make the trip. Still, I've never made this trip before, and I'm in the planning stages. I'd be grateful for any advice that you'd be willing to give (best ports, etc). I'm not going to be able to take as much time as I'd like to do it, but if the weather doesn't cooperate, I own my own business and can take more time if need be. I'm coming from the Detroit area and planning on taking three days to get up there and three days to come home (weather permitting).
Oh--the swim is a fundraiser to help out Habitat for Humanity. Check out our website at MightyMacSwim.com. If you feel philanthropic, feel free to donate a few bucks under my name (Paul Schmude).
Cheers, and get those boats waxed!
