A couple of years ago Skipperliner Industries got into financial trouble, they are a boat building company and operated a restaraunt and a marina called North Bay Marina. Last September a new local business man bought the business to revive the operation. There were several outstanding loans that Skipperliner Industries owed to our local governments and they and the new owner have come to a repayment deal. It's a 10 year deal of principal only but the good news is none of these monies owed is tax payer dollars.
The North Bay Marina complex has been divided up among several other business owners, the operations and the boat-storage facilities were taken over by American Marine boat dealership which plans to move all their service and sales facilities to this new site. The restaraunt known as Huck Finn's on the Water was bought by another local business man and for the first time plans to add transient boat docks.
This is great news for all boaters alike that want to visit Port of LaCrosse. North Bay Marina is located on the Black River a little north of our famous Riverside Park. All these new businesses plan to hire more help which is great for the employment industry. North Bay Marina is another cruise stop everyone will want to stop at and enjoy.
