Marine Team
Chris Ertl
General Manager
Chris is the reason we were able to open a marine center in 2018 because he is the only one we can trust at the helm. He has a wife and two kids at home and even though he switched to the boating life you can still see the sport bike rider in his eyes.
Troy Keller
Marine Product Specialist
Troy is the best person on the planet at building and maintaining relationships because he sincerely cares about everyone. He has thousands of hours logged on the R1 and now enjoys a more relaxing life with his wife and daughter cruising around Wisconsin on Yamaha Jet Boats. When he does find time for himself you might find him on the golf course wishing he was as good as Corey.
Todd Lossel
Parts, Gear, and Accessories Specialist
Todd spent the last 25 years in the outdoor adventure world of kayaking, down-hill skiing, and mountain biking - just to name a few! Needless to say, if it belongs outside, Todd loves it. This love for outdoors also translates to his cabin in Lakewood, WI where he enjoys riding his RZR with his two sons, who are already taking apart and putting machines together in the garage at night.
Andy Elmer
Marine Center
Andy is the leader in our marine service department. He prefers jet skis with standing room only and does the best chicken impression you have ever heard, which I am sure his wife Tara doesn't think is funny anymore.
Adam Demler aka Wally
Technician
Adam is always rebuilding something and usually that something is from the 1970s. Snowmobiles, Tri-Zingers, and an old truck that doesn't look old anymore are all things he makes better. He has been with Team Winnebagoland for 20 years and is loyal to his wife, too.
Chad Campbell
Marine Service Writer
Chad and his three (count em', that's 3) puppy dogs join the Marine Team after spending the last 25 years in the automotive industry working behind the counter, we couldn't be happier to have all of that wisdom on our side now. Be sure to ask if he's really Santa Claus in the winter months!
Matt Voigt
Service Technician
With more than ten years of experience, Matt is a go-to for mechanical advice, boating questions, and most importantly, tri-zinger races. He also will show you how to use the drone if you are nice to him. When he isn't at Team, he is making his wife a plate of corny jokes or maintaining his reputation at Jet Ski Friday.
Adam Hintze
Set-up Technician
Adam runs the fastest nautical mile on a pontoon and is ready for everything we throw at him. He started with us in 2018 and when he isn't setting up a jet boat with a new sound system you might check the skate park to find him.
Chase Heitzmann
Sales Technician
Chase grew up in the water captaining his parents' boat and later found a passion in it. This young gun is ready to take on the marine world by storm!
Brae Meidam
Marine Detail Technician
Brae has an eye for detail and a work ethic to match a greek god. When he isn't turning heads with another impossibly clean boat, you might find him at a car meet or making the class laugh with a zippy one-liner!
Mike Schommer
Finance Manager
Mike loves hunting, fishing, and the packers, but he is married to his wife and kids. At work he sings bad parodies to whatever song is on the radio and is always the life of the party on our off-road rides.
Riley Yonker
Lot Technician
Riley is one of our in-house high schoolers and if you watch him closely you can see the future of Team Winnebagoland just pouring out of him. No, those aren't tears! He may have been born after 9/11 but you wouldn't think it if you met him on the basketball court. If you see Riley outside pulling boats around give him a wave!
Andy Johnson
Outboard Technician
We needed an outboard expert and Andy came to our rescue! We found him hanging out with the guys at Jet Ski Friday but you may also find him on a snowmobile! We rely on Andy to keep your engine in perfect shape so you can feel confident on the water.
