Our first boat!!!!!

It could never, ever be a happy day for me to sell a boat. I have always loved boats and always will. Yes, they are a pain in the neck but until the day we are unable to get into them, we will have them.

When the day comes that you have a hard time getting IN them, consider a pontoon boat....you step onto them. We're looking!!

I don't know. Himself doesn't like them at all. Maybe if that was the only way he could boat, I don't know.

One of the best parts of boating is sharing it with others. When we entertain at our camp on the lake, the highlight of everyone's weekend is when we go for a cruise. It's amazing to me how happy everyone is when they're in the boat. Particularly because of how beautiful Winni is.
So much to see and so many great destinations and awesome places to explore.
Often times we just find a cove or a spot where there's little or no traffic, take a swim, open a bottle of wine or enjoy a favorite cocktail, turn up the music and enjoy the incredible scenery.
When you look at the pictures and see the expression on peoples faces while they're in the boat, you'll understand why you bought it.

It is the best therapy there is

Congrats on your new purchase. Having fallen deep for all things beautiful at Lake Winni we also recently purchased our first Winni boat! Having spent a season with the American Boat Club at Akwa Marina (highly reccomended)we just loved boating and exploring the lake. We finally found and purchased our boat from the good people at Silver Sands Marina on August 29th...we are looking forward to seeing you on the lake and meeting you on a sandbar! We are just starting our third year at the lake and want to express to all who follow this terrific forum how much we love and respect your beautiful region.
