We have a Raymarine setup and installed the Sirius weather system a couple of weeks ago, so far I think we are going to like it – my wife thinks it is cool so there you go. Getting started by removing the access panel under the radar mount on the hard top. Then removed the speaker from the...

Will be starting a project and will need to run at least one wire (small diameter - 9/16) from the top of the hardtop to the helm on a 05 420. No problem with the access panel under the hardtop, curious about coming down the arch support and up into the helm area. Anyone have any...

The latest software for the Raymarine e-series is available, v4.29. There is also a link to the update manual/quick reference guide.

Greetings, We will be going to Fayette this summer, never been there before. Looking for pointers, suggestions, cautions, must haves, etc. Looking forward to the trip. Heck, looking forward to the snow melting! Thanks

Waldo looking to take control.

A while back I set up a web page that is a compilation of useful links for Northern Lake Michigan marine weather. I have the page piggybacked off my wife’s web site (thanks honey). The links include local radar, open water forecast, near shore forecast, links to mid-lake buoys, etc. Idea...

Just curious if any is attending this event. Scheduled for July 28 just inside the channel from Round Lake - I think. Time is pretty darn close to our gathering. My wife wondered if anyone was sticking around for this.

I just talked to our Harbor Master in Frankfort today. He said a heads up for Leland. Apparently the channel depth is pretty darn shallow this year according to a few boats that have moved through [Frankfort]. Looks like they may not be doing any dredging this year either, I had heard COE...

Guess we may need to narrow it a bit, was going to say Great Lakes Gathering but that coves a lot of water. I'm interested in seeing what we can put together. Yes Elk Rapids is a haul but not just for me. I'm sure there are others that will take an interest in this - hint hint Wonderful...

Destination Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin We lived in Wisconsin for 4 years and kept our boat in Sturgeon Bay, Door County. We made a lot of friends there and like to go back to visit. This year we left July 5th from Frankfort (our home port) for Sturgeon Bay. The crossing is one of the...

Destination Mackinaw, Labor Day Weekend. After all the years boating and living in Michigan we had never been to Mackinaw on the boat. Since we were pulling out of Frankfort for the season and moving north we figured it would be a good opportunity to make the trip. We left Frankfort on...

To continue the “Points of Interest†thread started by boltman, thought I would share some of this past summer’s adventures/destinations. While our seasonal slip is in Frankfort, we have been spending the Spring and Fall in the Traverse Bay area. Destination Boyne City, Michigan...
