Our Michigan Sailing Charter
Scrimshaw is a 1986 Hunter Legend 45 sloop with two complete state rooms including head and shower and full beds.

Scrimshaw has been to all the major ports of Lake Huron and last year completed a circumnavigation of Lake Huron proving her sea worthiness as a great cruising boat as she is well equipped for sailing in comfort.

With a full Galley, Hot and Cold running water, stove, barbeque, Microwave, Freezer and Ice box, a 110v generator and is powered by a 55 hp Yanmar turbo charged diesel with a top speed under power of 8 knots. Under sail we cruise at 5+ knots.

You will be met at the dock on the Clinton River and motor out to Anchor Bay, then down to Huron Point Light were we turn to port or starboard depending on the wind.

This is where you take the helm and if you need help you will receive some basic sailing skills instruction from Capt. Dominick Principe, 100 ton Master license and ASA cert. instructor.

You then have the option of just sailing off to wonderful spots like Belle river, Grosse Point or to Seaway Island for a swim.

Our goal is to give you a memorable experience of sailing Lake St. Clair Michigan.

Advanced styling keeps the Scrimshaw safe and easy to sail.

Scrimshaw's dimensions are as follows:

  • L.0.A. 46’8”
  • Beam 13’10”
  • Displacement 25,600#
  • Shoal Draft 5’7”
  • Head room below 6’6”
