Class description:

The Apostle Islands is Lake Superior’s yachting center, and a popular cruising destination. They have spectacular anchorages, sandy beaches, historic lighthouses, and pristine forests. Quaint harbor towns support the area's boating activities, and the National Park Service manages most of the islands.  This seminar includes sailing directions, weather, must-see places, ports, overnight destinations and safety.
