We`ll christen her "Aja Marie"
Hi All, My wife Rosie and I just finished a 5 day journey starting at Bay City, Michigan where we picked up Forever Young, a 44' MT trawler and brought her to our home port of Sturgeon Bay, WI. We bought her from Joe Manelis, who had owned the boat for 10 years and kindly offered to join us and show up the ropes. Rosie and I are completely new to big water boating and could not have done it without someone like Joe by our side. Weather was good every day, and we stayed overnight at Tawas, Presque Isle, Mackinaw City, and Leland marinas before making the crossing across Lake Michigan. Fog most of one day and massive amounts of lake flies another were the only (slight) negatives of the trip. We'll be naming the boat after our grand-daughter, Aja Marie, and plan to spend a couple of years getting good at what we do and then venturing off on longer adventures. We're looking forward to learning a lot just by staying in touch through this website and asking a lot of questions of the many experts who inhabit this site.
