Great Trip
Jack, I made the trip to Isle Royale when I first got my H26. It's a great trip and your take off point of Grand Portage is a good idea. I suggest to put your boat in at the ramp at the Indian casino marina. Easy to do, good place to park the car and trailer, lose a few dollars at the casino, and eat a cheap buffet!! Sail to Washington Harbor - only about 22 miles from the marina - and then sail around the south side of the island where there are a lot of great anchorages - very few sailboats and a few moose. Strongly suggest you buy the crusing guide called "The Superior Way" by Bonnie Dahl. There is a good section on Isle Royale and tells you all the good anchorages and a lot about the island. Good hiking trails for a break from the water. Feel free to e-mail me if you have more questions or can't find the book. E-mail address is FraboniMN@aol.com
