Day 140 @ Private harbor, Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin – Great Loop Boat Trip

Um… this was unexpected! We are all set up to head over to a private harbor in Sturgeon Bay! First a walk in Sister Bay. So this morning I finished my mail and walked over to the post office to send everything and then down to the gas station for Nick’s items then back to the boat.

This was parked in front of the Post office. Bruce helped us shove off and we said goodbye to Sister Bay and hello to a short trip to see our friends Dave and Peggy! The weather was nice and the seas were easy.

Then we saw what we thought is the beautiful Belize Yacht!

So Nick to a sharp turn to Port and we headed over. We were greeted by Dave in a golf cart.

We entered his establishment via golf cart through the basement where he collects things.

Dave gave us the nickel tour of the house in the Dave-Compound of homes! This is a photograph from underwater and they are good friends with the artist!

Spotted a Photo of Peggy!

Chinese Secretary desk.

Then the ships.

Aside from the models, he has a Belize Yacht, 2 dinghies, 3 Chris Crafts and a sailboat. But I’m only at his main house. I haven’t seen the other three homes in Sturgeon Bay. Here is a bathroom. So we went out for lunch to an awesome Irish pub!

Best Bloody Mary ever!!!

Next up was Dave’s storage unit or playplace.

Inside…. motorcycles

Old cars

Yes that’s a taxi.

He can drive a cab if he want to.

This one was really old. 91 years old.

Then there was the Amphicar.

Oh and he also collects Porsche cars.

This has every toy ever! So then we went to get some cheese at Renards.

Then the meats!

This is the worlds biggest Gnome. I wasn’t scared.

After a quick tour of the town and his prized possessions we settled in to the patio for cheese and cocktails! What an amazing day and such wonderful host and hostess!

Sleeping in the red bedroom tonight in the house. He has room enough for everyone! His home is big and he owns the three homes right next to his! Tomorrow he is going to show us more of his toys!

Teri is a retired CFO and Nick is a partner in a private equity firm. We are both very irrelevant in the business worlds. We jumped up to a 52 foot boat because we were in need of more adventure. We are on the Great Loop around the East Coast of North America. It's been a wild ride!
