Lake Erie cruising guide
I have not been able to find anything resembling a cruising guide of Lake Erie. Is there a better alternative to Active Captain and sailing directions/coast guides?

I had thought there was a guide like the one produced for Lake Ontario but I don't see one. When looking I saw something from Richardson.

There is also the Waterway Guide, but I don't have it. Their web site is OK.

The Great Lakes Cruising club claims to have harbor reports.

Great Lakes Sailing website is free, but has limited info.

I do have the Richardson book, which is fine for Charts. It's cruising guide section has phone numbers for marinas but not much else.
