The direct reply I sent to the person inquiring about the above may be of interest to other members of this list: Northwest Passage (in which I have no financial interest) is headquartered in Wilmette, Illinois, and offers a variety of trips and programs, including sea kayaking activities. I have never gone on one of NWP's kayak trips (I paddle on my own in various Great Lakes), but I bet it has some good ones. NWP's kayaking staff are enthusiastic and capable. For further info, surf _at_ http://www.nwpassage.com/.

I'm sure such a list would be of interest to others on this list. Won't you please post it, perhaps after you get the information you seek? TIA!

Larry's e-mail is <lmerx_at_nkfm.org>. The GLSK people run an excellent symposium at Grand Marais on the UP of Michigan every summer.
