Re: Woo Hoo Finally found my Hatt!
It is in Onekama, Michigan on the west side of Michigan for the winter.
In the spring once the ice clears (when exactly we won't know until spring) we will bring her up and around under the Mackinaw Bridge and down through Lake Huron. We will keep her possibly in Port Huron, St. Clair, Mi, or down on Lake St. Clair. Our first choice would be MacRay Harbor on Lake St. Clair because of the nice facilities there and the possibility of indoor storage. Likely won't be able to do that though. The waiting list I found out has about 40 people on it and I was told indoor storage condo's rarely become available.
So we will likely take whatever becomes available in any of those 3 spots.
It will be about a 5 day trip to bring her around, Maybe Freebird will be available to show me the ropes??

1980 53' my
8V71Ti's with "about" 2500 to 3000 hours depending on which meter you believe. Oil samples came back great,
no soft spots, no blisters, has working stabilizers.
2 generators with 275 hours on an 8kw and about 800 on the 15kw
Paint is in good shape, although it has the off white color, I would prefer a bright white, but that's o.k. It's not the real dark off white.
Needs lot's of things yet but a lot has been updated, new toilets, newer Fisher-Paykel fridge.
Top side windows appear to be close to new, but can't tell for sure.
No blisters......Last edited by Bob Quinn; 10-21-2021 at 09:32 PM.

Re: Woo Hoo Finally found my Hatt!
Those photos were taken in Frankfort, not Portage Lake.
But she looks like a really nice boat. And Hatteras off-white is the proper color for that boat. Don't try to make her into a new boat. She looks classic, timeless.Sky Cheney
