Manitowoc, WI - Sheboygan, WI - August 26, 2008



We got underway early again this morning, 6:40 a.m. Today wasn’t as pleasant a day as yesterday. Although it was clear and sunny, the wind was blowing from the east and there were 3-5’ seas. We were really rolling. The wind was higher than forecasted and wasn’t expected to subside until tomorrow. We decided to follow the first rule of cruising - if isn’t fun get off the water - so we stopped at Sheboygan instead of continuing on to Port Washington. This wasn’t as bad as our Albermarle Sound crossing but it probably earned second place. We arrived a little after 10 and were quite happy to be inside the breakwater at a marina.

This beautiful sailboat is on the same dock we are. Look at the stained glass hatchboard.
