Great information! Thanks!

Thanks SaltyDog!

:) Roger that Marty

Wow! You guys are really living your dream!

Thanks again to everyone! Marty: I emailed them last night after much web searching. They have the classes I want but no pricing. Also no pricing listed for the trawler charters. I've found that Great Lakes trawler charters are very expensive for a week...~$5K. Heck, I can fly to/from...

This is some really great information folks. My thanks. My question is geared more toward partial live aboard/coastal cruising rather than vacation. I can see myself and spouse living aboard for a season, perhaps Winter in Florida...snowbird to a boat rather than into an RV or rented condo...

Hi Al! Thanks for the welcome! No boat yet. We'll see :)

Thanks everyone! Very helpful :)

Hi all, I'm very blessed to have a job which allows me to work from anywhere there's an internet connection. MiFi is the way to go as long as I'm close enough to shore to pick up a cell tower. Although we haven't done this yet, I'm wondering if there are any other boaters here who work from...

Yep, some good instruction there for sure. We'd like to stay closer to home if possible. Thanks! Dennis

Thanks! Bay Pelican, are there trawlers for bareboaters in Michigan City? It's beautiful there and close. I've web searched and can only find charters for sailing. Capt Patti of Sea Sense has found one in Traverse City. Nothing closer so far. Perhaps I can find a delivery within the Lakes...

Hello world :) I've been lurking in the background of this excellent forum for quite some time and, as many have commented, find it friendly and wonderfully helpful. Kudos! About me...I'm in landlocked Indianapolis but have the Ohio River 2 hours to the South and Lake Michigan 3-4 hours to...

Roger that. They look like a great provider. I'd rather take a day's drive to the Chesapeake though. Or a 6-hour drive to Traverse City. It'll come down to cost I'm sure. Thanks Norm! Good to hear from a fellow Hoosier :)

Capt Patti Moore of Sea Sense is helping quite a lot in locating a Great Lake Trawler charter. While it makes sense for us to tackle this next Summer, give her a shout. Everything I've read about Sea Sense is very positive. If you can't find her email, let me know! :)

:) Since this post, I've contacted the fine folks at Seasense based on the recommendations seen in other posts. My thanks to those prior responders!

Hello! We caught the bug years ago but never did anything about it. That bug, of course, is the Trawler Bug. Too old to buy, we want to learn and charter different waters several times a year. We're in Indianapolis so are quite close to Lake Michigan and Erie. We'd like to take some formal...
