Good morning through-out the country. Please excuse my ignorance in not first posting as a new member.

My wife and I are long-time Wisconsin boaters out of Baileys Harbor. Our cruising waters are typically Lake Michigan and its Green Bay. We haved enjoyed Mississippi River crusing along with the occassional trip to Lake of the Ozarks and Table Rock.

Now for our boats. Started with two SeaDoo GTX, then to SeaRay 185.

Then we bought our first real boat, a new 1998 232, 350 Mag, Classic Polo Green. Graduated to a new 2003 263, 496 Mag, Classic Navy, camper top for overnighting. My favorite accessory was Captains Call on unmuffled big block.

Next, we decided to experience weekends at the marina and bought a 2005 SeaRay Sundancer berthed at Centerpointe Marina in Sturgeon Bay.

Two summers ago we got back to the real thing with a 2012 302, white with taupe boot stripe, twin 320 gci evc, joy stick. It's handled like a champ in four footers and loaded with kids and grandkids.

I will post additional photos. Look forward to visiting this site regularly.

Hey we appreciate the intro post rvorpahl. Thank you for taking the time to do that.

You have quite a history of boats in your repertoire. Looking forward to more pics. 302 is a great boat (really enjoyed that bow pic you posted in the other thread) but I'm looking forward to your 263 pics from back in the day.

Again welcome aboard mate!

Awesome, another wisconsin boat. I love Baileys Harbor and Door county. Spent many summers there while growing up. Hoping to make my way to the bay this summer.

My favorite accessory was Captains Call on unmuffled big block.

I can tell we'll get along just fine.
