Just two weeks away. Trip I've been thinking about for acouple of years...The Columbus (Ohio) Power Squadron announced last fall that this cruise was going to be the highlight of the summer season and I knew I had to do it....looks like we've got 10 or so boats heading up there on August 11th...launch at Peterborough and over the next 6 days work our way across....I'm going to take my 20 foot rinker cuddy and slip away to do the Big Chute marine railroad 'thing'...how can you be a cruising boater in the Midwest and never have done the Big Chute....Any advice...my brother and I are sleeping on the boat...early part of the trip is very built-up...latter part is more primitive (yea)....still looking for advice, recommendations on food eateries, suggestions are really cool things to see....jump in and help me have a cruise that will stay with me thru the long Ohio winters...pictures and dialog to follow the trip. Thanks.
