Food advice Golfman. I’m seeing a few boats in Sturgeon Bay pop up on Boat Trader & Yacht World. Nothing in Chicago so far or around “The Bend”. Grand Haven has revealed a few. I have my filters set to 2003+ with minimum of 34’. I think the 330,340,350 or 360 will be a good start.
Sorry. Didnt make the connection. Problem there is expense of transporting the boator cruising the trek home. And I cant wven get a slip until last of April.
I am messaging an owner of a 2002 340 and boat is still in water in upper Chesapeake Bay. Claims the marina does some bubbling method ( i guess to reduce ice forming ).
Hey Pirate Lady,
I don’t own a boat, hence, my original post for size recommendations. But, when I do purchase, I intend to explore much of Lake Michigan’s shoreline and will use the anchor, generator, galley, berth & head.
I just moved here last July only having previous boating experience as...
Great advice ttmott. Plus i can add some fishing time in. I know my SUV can haul 7,700 lbs. so it’s possible i can trailer a 20’er and store in our barn.
Thank’s Golfman. We desire to spend multiple nights aboard on cruises up and down the coast. I’m a fairly large guy so space is somewhat important (i.e. head / shower, galley, berth, etc.). Ocassionally, we would have guests overnight, but generally, just for social settings.
I live near South Haven & Saugatuck Marina’s. Space is available at each. Since I have never owned / operated a boat is there a best starter size for me ?
