Captain Jason and I scouted the Inland Waterways this past weekend. Although there are several areas that are still very high water levels (18-20” above normal), in general levels are slowly creeping back down to more normal levels.

Our booking site will be live next week so you can book your charter with us for July, August and September. Stayed tuned for that!!

And lastly, our plan is to be launching the boat later this month once the water levels are lower and the boat launches are back open for larger boats like ours. For now it’s in good hands at the Boat Doctor getting serviced and spiffed up for the season.

We are stoked to host you and your group aboard Apples & Anchors Charters this summer!!!

Your Favorite First Mate,
Christie
