Last boats delivered...


December 4th was an pretty blustery day, but then again, pretty typical for Northern Michigan standards and not too bad of a day to deliver the last of the Bay Breeze boats to haul out. In the marina the wind indicator was reading 21-28 knots but things died down a bit after rounding the point and heading north towards Northport Bay Boatyard where a hearty c… Continue

Bay Breeze Goes to Hollywood

To get there by sailboat would require a long commitment since our sailboat wasn't near the islands. So on an unusually calm and sunny day, we launched the "work boat", a 20' Robalo… Continue

Annapolis Boat Show


If its possible to overdose on boat browsing, the Annapolis Boat Show is the place that will happen. It was cool to see the highest of the high end boats and all the amazing innovations that go with the price tags but my favorites are the boats that appeal to the practical side of me. But that is probably why I have owned mostly station wagons my whole life.… Continue
