I have a 1987 Mariner 3297, on my 4th season and my wife and I absolutely love this boat. It's difficult to beat the interior of the 32' boat for size, comfort and amenities.
I found this forum while trying to get some information, as you can imagine its hard to find current info on a 31 year old vessel! So I'm hoping there are some salty ol' skippers here that might be able to help. I'll post my questions on the other board as this is for introduction.
We moor at Elba-Mar Boat Club in Grosse Ile, Michigan. Get about 4 months per season, sometime a 5th if we're lucky. We are primarily destination boaters, although we do have several anchoring spots near home port for day and overnight hook trips. I have been boating the Great Lakes since I was a kid (40+ years) and it's our passion each Summer.
Previously I owned a 1987 Imperial 240FC (my first boat) and a 1989 Four Winns 285 Vista. Grew up on 1972 Marinette 26, 1986 Trojan F32, 1987 Cruisers 297 Elegante, 1989 Silverton 37

If you ever need a hand, give me a shout!

Last year I bought most of my gas at Detroit Beach or your club. Much better than the price at the marina. Last time I checked it was $4.59 at GBY.
Hope to see you out on the waters. I do spend some time at Dunbar & Sullivan.
