Boaters,
There is a kayak stuck in the middle of the Middle Narrows as of yesterday. It is about a 1/4 mile downstream from Sports Car Corner. There is nobody in it. Everybody is ok, but the boat is stuck. If you happen across it, there is no emergency. If you happen to dislodge it, or find it dislodged, please ferry it to near shore and call the owner. If you can’t safely dislodge the boat, leave it. We will come up with a plan.

Owner’s name and number are on the boat. Gary also lost his red Werner paddle. Please Pay-It-Forward.

Happy Saturday
