Welcome from a fellow 232 owner!  I know what it's like to buy a "new" boat in the fall and have to wait until spring.  It'll be your longest winter ever!   :cry:

I know what you mean.  We bought our very first boat (Rinker 270) in 2006.  We bought new so we would (hopefully) not have to spend all of our learning time fixing things and thought to go large enough so that we would not need to sell and buy again for awhile.  This year we added to the fleet with a seadoo - which we use as a tender as well.  We boat on the Bay of Quinte but may be moving eventually to Lake Erie - so enjoyed seeing your pics!

Welcome to the party !!  Lake Erie is a great body of water to explore and enjoy. Good luck with the restoration!! We are doing continuing restoration/maintenance on our 86 V-19. The boat take a lot of hard water on Erie. Happy New year to Everyone, The boat show starts in about 2 weeks here in Cleveland. Spring must be just around the corner!!

Welcome to the forum!  I've been inside the perry power plant, quite a place!  I'm originally from the Cortland (north of Warren) area.  Did my share of boating on a few lakes there, including Erie.  Looks like it might be a couple months of lake effect snow this year without Erie freezing yet! :shock:

Welcome to the forum PartsMan.  Lake Erie offers a lot of great boating opportunities.  Can't wait to get my boat back in the water in May.  Maybe I'll cross paths with some of the forum folks on the lake this summer.
