Easy. Look at the NBDC Web site and pick out the South Haven Buoy and
it reads out the wave height in tenths of a foot.

I read 6ft too. How does one measure waves in 10ths of a foot?

I first read that as 6-8 knots and 6 foot waves. I thought, "How
different that is on Lake Champlain"

Went out to find the new Weather Buoy just dropped 2 miles west of
South Haven, Michigan. Nice day on the lake. We sailed a nice close
reach to the Buoy (after going around the Perch fishing fleet) and
then went on a dead run north for a while. Tacked into a broad
reach into 6-8 knots (.6 foot waves), Tacked back to South Haven for
a really nice day out. 65 degree water and 76 degree air set up a
bit of haze to make identifying the lighthouse a bit of a challenge
until about 2 miles out. The new buoy can be found at:
http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/station_page.php?station=45168
They have a web cam at:

Sailing on the inland seas are unique.
