Kind words from happy customers!

We love hearing from our customers!

"We had an amazing trip out to Catalina over Super Bowl Weekend. All the upgrades and maintenance that were done down at the Mikelson facility are greatly appreciated.

The new Marklon enclosure is crystal clear and easy to use. The vents on the smoked glass make all the difference in the world when it comes to keeping the bridge cool with fresh air.

The new bait tank system ran flawlessly over the 2 days it was in use. See the attached picture of lobsters that where kept very much alive for their trip back to port. Sunday morning we woke up to 12.1 volts on the house batteries. It was refreshing to have plenty of battery capacity. The bottom paint, through hulls, and packing all looked good during an under water inspection of the hull.  We achieved excellent fuel economy with the new bottom paint and clam water conditions.

It was also nice to watch the Super Bowl while on the hook at Catalina. We even had a Sea Gull come in to check on the score. I was pleased to watch the second half of the big game from the bridge on the Garmin screen. The Fusion Stereo provided perfect surround sound for a stadium effect. Radar overlay on the Chart Plotter on one side and Super Bowl on the other. It was the best combination ever displayed while underway.


We want to express our sincere thanks to you and the Mikelson team for keeping our boat in excellent condition."

Making Mikelson Memories

More kind words from happy Mikelson customers. We love seeing priceless memories take place on our boats.

"Took my youngest fishing with me and I was a little nervous taking a 6 year old offshore. He did absolutely incredible and landed 3 tuna with just a little help. The Mikelson was instrumental for us as it gave him all the comforts and conveniences for such a big trip for a little person. Thank you! Just in that one day he transitioned from a little boy to a little man. Very cool to see and be a part of. He fit right in with all the adults and was eager to kill the next fish with all of us. I know if his first experience was on a smaller or less equipped boat it would have been a different story. So big thanks to everyone at Mikelson."

Kind Words from Mikelson Customers!

Got some kind words from Mikelson 57' owners of Reely Hooked! They're loving their Mikelson while on their trip to Vancouver Islands! "Our 57 Mikelson is perfect. Runs great and we rarely have a problem Jon can't fix by himself! You, Dick and crew make a beautiful boat...we are so blessed for all the great times we have had on our 43 and 57..."

Mikelson Yachts Catalina Island Rendezvous


             Things are busy over here in the office getting everything ready for our favorite time of year—the Rendezvous! For this year’s Rendezvous we’re throwing it back to the 80’s!  We are excited for another fun-filled event this year so come on down August 21st-24th to Two Harbors in Catalina for a groovy time! It would be greatly appreciated if you could send us your completed forms (619-223-1194 by fax or info@mikelsonyachts.com by email) along with putting a check in the mail for $250.00 (which includes dinner for up to 4 people) to our delicious prime rib dinner on Saturday night.
           
            We’ve got dancin’ fever just thinking about getting to see all of our friends—both seasoned Mikelson owners and the totally new rad owners—so be sure to break out the neon tights, leg warmers, shoulder pads, and those high top sneakers for our flash back costume contest! Let’s make all of Catalina think that they have traveled back in time for a weekend of retro fun.
           
            Boats will start getting together Thursday August 21st in Two Harbors, Catalina. We highly encourage everyone to get there early for the best shot to moor your boats in Cherry Cove or near our central meeting site on Isthmus Beach for Saturday’s festivities. Catalina doesn’t offer reservations for moorings, so if you arrive late you could be out of luck for a good spot.
           
           After you arrive and get settled, kindly look for one of our Mikelson hospitality members to greet you with your goodie bag and sign in. Your goodie bag will be chock full of Island Rendezvous merchandise, such as preordered T-shirts, hats, visors and tokens from our sponsors. Your bag will also contain your Saturday Prime Rib Dinner ticket for everyone registered in your party.
 This year’s good time will tentatively include:
Friday, August 22nd:
Poker Run 2-4pm
Cocktail Bingo and Happy Hour-- starts at 5pm
Saturday, August 23rd:
*3 hour dinghy fishing tournament starting from Sealoon Mikelson 50’: 8-11am after which, head down to our beach area with the Mikelson flags.
*Captain Pablo’s Retro Trivia: 5pm
*Psychadelic Island Punch Contest: 6:15pm
*Prime Rib Dinner to follow contest
*Funky Flash Back 80’s costume contest
Slide show and live music
 
*BYOB (Bring Your Own Beverage): Mikelson will supply water and soda pop
