Speedy Time on Lake Michigan

This was a beautiful and fun experience. My pictures turned out great despite it being a little cloudy/rainy. We did get a little wet and it was windier than expected. The guide did a great job. The music choices were kind of weird.

It's not worth the cost...

It's not worth the cost of this boat ride. Even the 10 year old and 14 year old said the ride was very disappointing
