New Carver 405 MY owner

Post by dsolo »

Saying hello from Whitehall, Michigan. Bought a 1997 405 MY with 454 Crusaders. Purchased in Traverse city, Mi. Brought down for heated storage in Onekema Marine. Having a hard time putting her away for season. Took her out today for a short trip to Manistee. Looking forward to learn from the forum's members. Dan

Welcome aboard Dan. By "hard time putting her away", I assume you mean you don't want the season to end yet? Especially tough if you just bought her and can't really get to enjoy until next season. We're feeling your pain. I'm in Ontario Canada so I can relate. I'm all put to bed now so moving on to the bucket list of things to do over the winter in prep for next season, getting ready for boat show shopping, organizing boating parties with boating buddies, etc. I find if I keep busy with boating stuff over the winter, it goes by quick.

Cheers

Thank you for the welcome. You are correct, would like more time in the water. the good news, I will be in heated storage and can work on projects through the winter.

Hope to spend time in the north channel of Lake Huron this coming summer. Beautiful country. Perhaps we will meet at one of the parties?

Beautiful spot for sure. There are some places where you could spend years boating and still not get to see everything. That's one of those places.
