She has carried hundreds of MSC students and sailors under the Golden Gate Bridge and onto the Pacific Ocean. At 44.4 feet overall length and 24,000 pounds of displacement, Coho II is built for crossing oceans with speed, seakindly motion, and good performance in both big winds and light airs. • Fast and able bluewater cruiser • Fully equipped for the offshore sailing and cruising experience TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS You are responsible for booking your own airfare. Direct flights from SFO to La Paz, and Los Cabos to SFO are available but are limited. Flights with layovers in San Diego or Los Angeles will cost less than direct flights. If you would like to use a travel agent to book your flights, we suggest Bob Entwisle at E&E Travel at (415) 819-5665. WHAT TO BRING Luggage Travel light. Your gear should fit in a medium duffel bag and small carry-on bag. Your carry-on should be less than 15 pounds. We recommend using a dry bag or backpack. Both bags should be collapsible for easy storage on the boat in small space. Do not bring bags with hard frames as they are difficult to stow. Gear We have found that people often only use about half of what they bring. A great way to bring only what you use is to lay all your items out and reduce it by 50%.

  • Brief History Timeline 2018 (PDF)
    TIMELINE ~ BRIEF HISTORY OF SUGARLOAF COVE, SICA, AND SUGARLOAF: THE NORTH SHORE STEWARDSHIP ASSOCIATION 10,000 P.C. Scattered archeological finds indicate Paleo-Indians occupy the area around Lake Superior’s North Shore after the final retreat of glaciers in the last Ice Age (Pleistocene Epoch). A variety of indigenous peoples inhabit the area over thousands of years. 1600s French explorers have the first contact with indigenous peoples in the area in the early to mid-1600s. Fur trade between native tribes and the French, British, and Dutch flourishes in the 1700s and early 1800s. 1854 The Ojibwe, who were established by then as the primary native tribe in northeastern Minnesota, cede substantially all the Arrowhead region, including Sugarloaf Cove, to the federal government in the Second Treaty of La Pointe, opening the area to European settlement. Settlers, mostly Scandinavian, flock to the North Shore and began commercial fishing and logging operations. 1880s Extensive logging begins in Cook County, including depletion of old growth red and white pine around Sugarloaf Cove. 1899 The John Gunderson family from Norway homesteads Sugarloaf Cove property. 1902 Consolidated Water Power & Paper Company of Wisconsin (“Consolidated”) begins a pulp paper business in Rhinelander (name changed to Consolidated Papers in 1962). 1909 The Superior National Forest is established. 1920s In 1923, Consolidated begins harvesting wood from Canada and rafting pulpwood logs across Lake Superior to Ashland for transport to Rhinelander for processing. In 1925, Consolidated acquires a large tract of timberland in Cook County from which to harvest pulpwood (mostly spruce, jack pine, and balsam fir).

  • Nature-Based Coastal Defenses in Southeast Florida Published by Coral Cove Dune Restoration Project
    Nature-Based Coastal Defenses Published by in Southeast Florida INTRODUCTION Miami Beach skyline ©Ines Hegedus-Garcia, 2013 ssessments of the world’s metropolitan areas with the most to lose from hurricanes and sea level rise place Asoutheast Florida at the very top of their lists. Much infrastructure and many homes, businesses and natural areas from Key West to the Palm Beaches are already at or near sea level and vulnerable to flooding and erosion from waves and storm surges. The region had 5.6 million residents in 2010–a population greater than that of 30 states–and for many of these people, coastal flooding and erosion are not only anticipated risks of tomorrow’s hurricanes, but a regular consequence of today’s highest tides. Hurricane Sandy approaching the northeast coast of the United States. ©NASA Billions of dollars in property value may be swept away in one storm or slowly eroded by creeping sea level rise. This double threat, coupled with a clearly accelerating rate of sea level rise and predictions of stronger hurricanes and continued population growth in the years ahead, has led to increasing demand for action and willingness on the parts of the public and private sectors to be a part of solutions. Practical people and the government institutions that serve them want to know what those solutions are and what they will cost.
