Thank you!  Unbelievably scary and beautiful the same time.

Re: Stus-List Interesting photos of waves on L. Erie

It is a lot safer when on a passage to bring the dingy aboard and secure it to 
the foredeck. 
A lot of people make all kinds of excuses for not doing it because there is 
work involved, but you run the risk of losing it by towing. 

A friend of mine, sailing a Hughes 35, lost his new dingy on the relatively 
short passage from Chester to Brooklyn Nova Scotia. 
The weather did not follow the forecast, and a storm developed. Despite having 
2 lines on it and trying several different things to reduce the jerking and 
banging about, it  broke free and was lost. 
It may be better to be lucky than smart, but depending on luck can bite you in 
the long run.

  We sailed Spirit home from Lake Ontario to Lake Huron in mid-October. It was 
a heck of a passage up Lake Erie (or, as my wife dubbed it: Lake Eerie!) with 
20-25 kts on the nose, and a week at dock waiting for a gale to pass. The 
height of the waves coupled with short period (due to shallow waters) made for 
a rough ride in our newly-acquired 35 mk III. I understand this photographer 
was working from the shoreline, so there's a lot more drama in those photos. 

  And on the topic of towing, our 10-ft RIB towed through those waters like a 
champ, with a 15-hp motor on (raised up) and the gas can lashed under the seat. 
I thought the little fella was going to get swamped a hundred times, but it 
stayed upright for the entire 600-mile journey. We had a snubber (shock 
absorber) in the tow line which helped ease the load on the stern cleats. In a 
following sea, it would come up from behind and kiss the stern. I have a 
feeling the gas can might have taken on some water, however, because I couldn't 
get the otherwise-reliable outboard to fire up after we finally reached our 
home port of Bayfield.
