Weather Day in Sturgeon Bay

Rain, Rain Go Away; Come Again Another Day! Heavy weather in Minneapolis tracked across northern Wisconsin today and into the bay. This morning a couple hour thunderstorm, then a break in the clouds even a bit of sunshine and now raining again.  I was able to get a bike ride in this afternoon and Carol got a cut and color, just a bit of paper work this morning during the storm.

Palmar Johnson has been outfitting a hull made in Poland from composite material that is lighter than aluminum according to a local resident. The hull was brought to Sturgeon Bay on a freighter two summers ago for the workmen here to finish. Based on the activity and the sea trials I think it is close to completed. A very interesting design, I am sure we will see it in a James Bond movie soon.
