Looking like beach weather on Lake Michigan today

[Stee6043]

Sunny and 50! The longer we go without ice...the better.

I visited Grand Isle marina on Saturday. The water is just below the docks right now. I hope the ice is kind to the docks this winter...

Your weather is just like ours--temps in the 50's and 60's and not much of a breeze. We're having the opposite problem with water levels. The water on the Columbia is down several feet from its usual levels and has been this way for weeks.

I walk the dog along the river every day and it's easy to look down at the bank and see the level. We did have some rain last week but it didn't seem to have any effect on the river levels.

Let's hope for a drier and warmer winter to keep the water levels down next year!

Anyone close to Holland MI ? Been online looking at dinghy’s at Coral Gables.
Anyone familiar with these guys?

Coral Gables is a good outfit. I have purchased from them before. Big Highfield dealer in the area.

I bought a Highfield dinghy from them also a few years ago and considering trading it in for one with the center steering console.
Great to work with.
They give discounts during Boat Shows, the Grand Rapids show is coming up Feb. 19th - 23rd.

I bought a Zodiak and Tohatsu from them a few years back. Really great to work with. They run free shipping deals pretty regularly...

I bought a highfield from them last summer. There wasn’t a salesman anywhere to be seen so I ended up buying it from the maintenance guy. Great guy, Dave is his name. At the time he was in the back building some other boats and the only person in the building. It worked out just great, as I’m sure he knew more about these boats than any salesman. Mine is a 13ft center council with a 40hp Honda, I’m really impressed with it.

We want a 12/13’ console with a 40hp.
It would be used to pull the grand boys on tubes etc. also to get ashore. Ours will be towed behind the boat.
They r pricy at this size and I’ll need a
trailer.
