We are boating!!

We made it to Bare Point Marina at 10:00 am Friday May 01. Had our steak sandwich,visit with friends. Just before we left the Island this morning the temp was +7, clear and calm, as soon as the sun hit the ice a fog developed and was hanging 6' above the ice but not over water. There was ice to push through Cat Island and again Rocky Narrows ,the are between Rocky Narrows and BarePoint was all fog with both ice and water,had to drive slow. There is still Ice on Manitou,Bigstone and you cannot get 1/4 mile beyond our Island.I would think a couple more days and all remaining ice should be gone-next weekend for sure. Lake is the lowest I can remember!be careful,safe and happy boating till next fall,Bye
