Apparently, a kayaker had a bit of misfortune on Lake Superior near Duluth
today. I have few details at this point. There was a small craft advisory
today, a east wind to 30 knots or more and nasty surf. All I know (from the
Coast Guard) is that he exited his boat in or near the ship canal, and got
banged up pretty bad against the jetty,  where some people helped him.
Apparently he is OK after the ambulance came and a trip to the hospital.
More as it becomes available.
