The latest news involves my first book.  Already in the hands of three proofreaders (it takes that many just to correct my grammar), The Wheelsmen has taken on it's official form:

Our thanks to Dave Sommers for his great photographic eye!

 Cement Boat is available for sale!  This 60 minute video shares a routine trip aboard the steamer Alpena.  The program highlights how they make cement and load it into the freighter.  You'll meet key sailors on board and learn how they got their jobs.  You'll also see incredible footage at the Soo Locks, Duluth Lift-Bridge and archive movies of a cement boat in a storm.   Features footage of the Alpena, Townshend, EM Ford, Crapo and JB Ford.  

Bombs Away: Good Bye Guardians of the Great Lakes  is our best selling documentary!  The 60 minute video is a departure from my maritime topics, but it's a facinating look at four Michigan air bases; Selfridge, Sawyer, Kincheloe and Wurtsmith.  90 years are chronicled, from biplanes to B-52 Bombers.  The Tuskegee Airmen even trained at two of our fields, located at Mount Clemens and Oscoda.  This DVD has a lot of extra features, including my ride with the Thunderbirds in an F-16.  I was honored to fly with the last B-52 bombers from Sawyer and Wurtsmith, and BOMBS AWAY shares much of that footage.

Deep Six: Titanics of the Great Lakes was recently updated as promised.  I just couldn't have a DVD without the extras you've come to expect from a 'Lake Fury' production!  I've added never-before-seen footage of the Bradley in drydock, some photos from the first divers on the Morrell, and a behind the scenes photo montage of how we made this incredible documentary!

The Edmund Fitzgerald Investigations was also retooled, adding over a half hour of new content, mostly highlighting the unique construction of this famous freighter.  Included are interviews with shipyard workers, former crew and a Coast Guard investigator who was on the CURV III investigation.  All new for 2008, the 50th Anniversary of the launch of the Fitz!                 --Media Access Click Here.
