We started our dive club in 2008 with the goal of creating an informal group of divers of any skill levels and special interests who enjoyed diving around the southeast Wisconsin area. We are lucky to live near Lake Michigan with access to some great shipwrecks. When a ship sinks in Lake Michigan's cold fresh waters, it stays there for us to see for hundreds of years. Lake Michigan was once a major thoroughfare for commerce and the passenger trade and over the centuries there were many storms and disasters on the lake that provided us with the wrecks we can dive today. Old shipwrecks are constantly being discovered on the Great Lakes, and the Wisconsin and Michigan maritime historical societies are continuing to add offical moorings to wrecks and also working to set up shipwreck preserve areas for the purpose of preserving shipwrecks for diving.

We offer some of the finest fishing boats available on Lake Michigan.  Up to 42'   All four boats are very well equipped with the necessary latest electronic, and fishing tackle to help target and catch trophy salmon and trout.

The boats are meticulously cleaned daily, especially the restrooms, and each boat offers plenty of room, inside and outside providing great seating and comfort on your outing.
