Article on the show set to air this Sunday here.

Apparently, someone thinks he and his brothers still own Four Winns...
"John Winn, owner of Four Winns boat company, has nautical paraphernalia and more than 30 boats, which he has collected and restored, displayed in his breathtaking 8,537 square-foot boathouse. "

Regardless, it should make for some good TV for boat and architecture fans.

WOW Now that's a boathouse.

I hope the segment ends up on youtube so we get to see it over here.

I have been in that boat house. John and my dad are good friends. My dad moved to Cadillac to start his dentistry business right when the Winns bought Safe-T-Mate Boats. Were all still patients until he retired in 2008. John has a severely handicapped son. The house was designed so he can move freely throughout. Both the house and boat house are amazing. Will be exciting to watch.

This should be very interesting to see. I set the DVR just in case I forget. If I was retired (and/or very wealthy) this is something I would do for sure.

Watched the show last night, little disappointed that they only spent what seemed to be a couple min on the 'boat house'. Would have liked to see more about the shop and each boat, guess that would be a different show?!?!?!

How would it be..........

I agree with you Powell, I was going back and forth from the Vikings game to the show and only caught like 2 min of it. I'm guessing that they only spent maybe 4 minutes tops on it....

I saw it too, and was a little disappointed. I could sure spend an entire day in there looking at all that history though!

I would be a player, except I am shopping for a cruiser now.
