Conner Sonnenberg turned heads over the weekend by setting sail on Lake Erie in a homemade hotdog-shaped boat. His latest mission? Reach Kelleys Island by sea.
Built with humor and surprising craftsmanship, Conner’s floating hotdog has captured the attention of social media and sparked smiles across Northeast Ohio.
Although he didn’t quite make it all the way to the island due to rough waves, he got close—and he's not giving up. Conner plans to continue his quest, proving that with a little creativity and determination, even the wildest ideas can get pretty far.
From the shores of Lake Erie to the edge of Kelleys, this is one of those stories that reminds us how fun it is to be from Cleveland.
