WEB SITE UP-DATE - 6/17/07

Every new adventure comes with a few bugs. While my web site is not totally finished, I have tons of information and photos left to share such as lighthouses from Wisconsin, Illinois, Puerto Rico, Grand Turk, and many more, the problems that we were experiencing earlier I believe have been resolved. If you experience a problem while visiting the site, please take a moment to let me know via the "contact us" form on the site. Thanks for visiting the site, and happy lighthouse hunting.

Trip 2008 - Updated 12/22/07

Our trip for 2008 is one that always gets a ton of response, so we will do it again in 2008. We will begin at Beaver Island, visit both lights there, then over two days visit; South Fox Island, Squaw Island, Lansing Shoal, Skillagalee Island, Gray's Reef, White Shoal, and Waugoshance. Imagine getting within a few feet of Waugoshance!!! Our Captain has a boat that requires a small amount of draft and we get right next to it. In addition, we disembark the charter boat and get on each island. NO LONG DISTANT SHOTS HERE! Watch our web site for offers to buy early and save $$$$$. The tentative date for this trip is the week of July 6, 2008. If demand warrants, and based on the response to this trip in the past, we may schedule to charters for that week.
