Hi listees, Wild Wind IV has cruised over 1500 miles all over Lake Superior this summer. Many fishing trips to Isle Royale. The boat looks good with four down riggers on the stern. She spent last winter inside a heated building in Superior WI. That was quite a project. I had to hire a 120 ton crane to take her out and put her back in. About oct. 15th I will leave Bayfield WI. and head for the Gulf of Mexico via the Tenn-Tom. This will complete out fourth great Loop. Three with Wild Wind III a 50' Prout sailing Cat. It should take us about three weeks. We plan to leave the boat in the Florida Panhandle area till after the New Year, then spend the winter in the Bahamas and the Turks and Caicos. I am looking for a good place to leave Wild Wind IV for the two months we will be home. Any suggestions would be appreciated. WWIV is 60'X25'X5'. Also if there are any listees on our route that would like to see WWIV contact me and I will let you know when we will be coming through your area. It looks like my timing is good. I will be taking on 1500 gallons of fuel, This should get us to the Gulf with a fuel to spare. Love those big tanks. I run WWIV like a trawler most of the time. One engine at a time. Dennis Raedeke
