Where you’ll fi nd the best service — and views — on the island.

On your next trip up to Door County, Wisconsin, stop off at Shipyard Island Marina, situated on the quiet, beautiful shores of Washington Island at the tip of Door County.

The marina has been there in some shape or form since the early 1900s, explains owner Andy Munao. It used to serve as the local ferry landing decades ago. Today, it’s a lovely marina offering transient and seasonal slip rentals; Yamaha outboard engine sales; repowering; hull and engine service; heated boat storage; winterization; 70-ton haul-out; and even a booming online parts store. Munao’s parents bought the marina in 1983 and moved to the area from Illinois looking for a change; the island they had spent summers on seemed like the perfect place. Munao started at the marina in 1985, and today he still operates and owns it with his parents.

“We’re a small family business, so we have close relationships with our customers,” he explains. “Many of our customers are like family to us — they have been with us for years. Many of their adult children now own boats that we take care of.”

The marina is an authorized Yamaha outboard sales/service five-star dealer and Mercury/ Mercruiser service/parts dealer. It’s a tradition in the business to provide lifetime trusted repair, service and maintenance, and that practice continues to the online parts sales that Munao started in the early 2000s. Today, the online parts store makes up a significant portion of its revenue.

At the end of the day, enjoy a world-class sunset and dinner at the marina’s restaurant, the Sailor’s Pub, which offers a diverse and fresh dinner menu.

Whether you’re looking for a quick stop, some much-needed repairs, or a permanent home to store your boat, Shipyard Island Marina will welcome you with experience, commitment and good old-fashioned family values. ★

Your own private slice of Lake Charlevoix.

Nestled amongst the woods on the shores of Michigan’s peaceful Lake Charlevoix, this timeless 1940s family lake home is the perfect retreat. Get outside and explore nature or simply relax by the 125 feet of private lake frontage.

“This is a beautiful family home, by all means,” says agent Pat O’Brien. “The openness of the floor plan, the new dock platform, the beautiful view, the pole barn to store all your toys — those are all really promising things.”

A large kitchen, living area and dining room serve as the perfect open area to entertain or enjoy time with family, with striking views of the lake in front and the woods behind through expansive windows. A gorgeous fieldstone fireplace serves as the centerpiece of the home, and wood paneling on the wall offers a homey atmosphere.

The expansive 500-square-foot main suite on the upper level offers the perfect escape, with a private library and study to work or relax. A spacious ensuite bath is filled with light from large glass block windows and features a sprawling double vanity and a clawfoot tub for a good soak after a long day playing on the lake.

The finished lower level boasts a rec room and workshop, providing something everyone can enjoy on rainy or cold days.

Just outside the front door you have your own personal waterfront on Michigan’s coveted Lake Charlevoix, with a new 140-foot Bulmann dock and two boat hoists. A 30- by 40-foot pole barn with electric and private wooded spaces complete the outdoor paradise that feels private and secluded while being only two miles from downtown Boyne City. This area offers plenty of outdoor activities and attractions that make it a favorite spot for Great Lakes boaters and outdoor enthusiasts alike. ★

1970 Sea Star Cougar 1604.

if you have a Classic Craft with a great story to share! Old Blue is a 1970 Sea Star Cougar 1604 with a 60-hp three-cylinder Johnson engine. The boat was originally purchased and owned by a family from Chicago who would vacation near Ludington, Michigan.

My brother (Tom Urban) and I (Larry Urban) purchased the boat in 1975 and have retained ownership in excess of 46 years. Old Blue has spent countless hours on Ford Lake, Hamlin Lake and other inland lakes in Mason County. Today, most boating days are spent on Lake Michigan when the weather allows for calm waters.

The primary interest of owning the boat was an insatiable love of waterskiing and spending time on the lake. However, since the original days, most of the time spent on the boat now is cruising down the Saugatuck channel, catching a few looks and cracking open an Oberon.

Old Blue retains its original color and paint scheme, as well as the original engine. The interior of the boat has been restored with a new fl oor, carpet and seats after it spent many years stored away in an old barn in northern Michigan. With a little work, Old Blue was looking as good as she did back in ‘75.

A favorite recent memory of Old Blue was last summer when a wild idea turned into reality. It was the Fourth of July and my son (Nate Urban) and I decided to attempt an 80-mile round-trip voyage to play golf in Benton Harbor, Michigan. We departed the boat launch at 6:45 a.m. and returned at 12:30 a.m. after successfully playing 18 holes of golf at Harbor Shores. It was truly an adventure of uncertainty when you’re relying on a boat from 1970. Once again, Old Blue had proven itself and gave us another story to talk about.

Cheers to calm days on the lake with a beer in hand! —Larry & Nate Urban, Hamilton, Michigan
