    Mechanic bill dispute

    Mississippi river running dry?

    I have been hearing about the Mississippi river being extremely low and possibly caused by earthquakes. It didn't come from the mainstream media so it raises concerns for me. Anyone else hear about this?

    Charter / Training

    Capt Randy has endless knowledge of boating, pricing and cost. I recommend him. It's well worth the money. He will train you in docking and anchoring and all the systems.
