Three sailboats from Grand Bend Yacht Club wait for a breeze to pick up (it did) for Sunday morning racing.

The lake can become so flat (I have a sometime-crew member who now has his boat in the Mediterranean, and notes that there is a constant swell there).

There's another character to the lake that is much more threatening! Lake Huron can quickly become violent enough to sink ocean-going freighters... and has done so many times over the last century; the worst in 1913, when a hurricane destroyed 19 ships and stranded 19 others. (For more details, Google Great Storm of 1913).

I personally love the many moods of our Lake Huron, which I have explored from many angles and weather conditions!
