Hello all... Thankfully it's almost vacation time and we are heading up to Northern Michigan. I'm dragging my boat up to cruise the inland waterway even though it might be a bit chilly. Well I am up there I find myself really tempted by the thought of cruising from Mackinaw City over to the island on my own boat.
I just have a little fish and ski so this would be a very fair weather only cruise. Beyond weather though, is it doable? I have no concept of state harbors, etc. Can I dock over on the island for a few hours, walk around, and then take her back to the City marina to pull out? I'm pretty unclear on the whole docking in harbor, etc. and not finding much on the State of Michigan websites to explain it.
It seems rather daunting, but the temptation is great. Thank you all for any thoughts
