From Wisconsin to New York
Surveyed in March, 2010 by Ben Miller, AMS of Green Bay, WI, Temptation was purchased by Jack Harris in early April, 2010 through Gunnar's Yacht and Ship of Racine, WI. Instead of trucking the boat east to its new home, the boat was sailed and motor-sailed over 800 nautical miles through four of the five Great Lakes. Jack was accompanied to Rochester, NY by Delivery Captain Larry Burris, an accomplished sailor and expert on Great Lakes navigation and Tom Kurtz, an experienced sailor from Green Bay. Jared Harris joined at the Welland Canal in Port Colburn, ON Canada to Rochester, and on to Prinyer's Cove, Canada.
