Our festival last week had some of the worst weather (and lighting for photos) of the summer. The ship parade entering the bay from Lake Erie was in small craft warnings although the were coming from 5-7' Lake Erie waves so things seemed calm.

Our club supplied the dozen + powerboats used as escorts plus media boats. The media did not do so well out on the lake. This was all supervised by the USCG with a hovering State Police helicopter, Border Patrol RIB, Sheriff, and the always popular Fish Police.
