The rugged beauty of Canada's Georgian Bay in late summer
The weather yesterday was soooo beautiful I went up to "The Bay" and cruised out to the Western Islands about 20 miles offshore in the Donzi and took these pictures I will share. The water is almost too cold to swim in but it is - "refreshing" !
Additional pics can be found in "Boating by Region" - "Great Lakes and Canada" by clicking on this link: http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/g...rgian-bay.html
Enjoy.

My route was Midland / pass betweek Beckwith and Giants Tomb / Westerns and then into the SC channel at O'Donnel Point and south to Honey Harbour and finally back to Midland. Gorgeous day but just not enough of them this summer.

Many thanks Bob for sharing ...we look to do the North Channel in 2010 Killarney to Mackinac Island ... we like our trip on the east coast this past summer ...but the water and scenery miss us ...Georgian Bay is the best boating place in East Cost of North America period

That fish is the best for sure. Don't know if you have ever been to Henry's on Frying Pan Island / San Soucie for their fresh fish. We always thought - ah, great - fresh pickerel right out of Georgian Bay. The last time there someone in the group walked behind a building and saw some containers that said " Lake Erie" !! ?? Maybe that was for the Perch which L Erie is famous for. LOL A group of us are going there Saturday for some "fresh pickerel". You just never know.
