  spray at a rate of 2 cm per hour or greater occurring, and may 
  rapidly accumulate on vessels. For the Gale Warning, west 
  winds 20 to 30 kt with gusts up to 40 kt and waves 8 to 13 ft 
  occurring.

* WHERE...Lake Superior from Grand Marais MI to Whitefish Point 
  MI 5NM off shore to the US/Canadian border, Lake Superior East 
  of a line from Manitou Island to Marquette MI and West of a

  superstructures may result in a catastrophic loss of 
  stability. Strong winds will cause hazardous waves which could 
  capsize or damage vessels and reduce visibility.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Mariners should prepare for dangerous accumulation of ice on
their vessel. If possible, remain in port, avoid the warning area
or conduct mitigation.

Mariners should alter plans to avoid these hazardous conditions.
