Wednesday July 30th …Departing from 78 Water St Mayville at  1 pm only…it will be an awesome day on the lake!!!

Thursday July 31st… this is our most disappointing day of the year-we have been on track for not only record July sales but also 2025 year to date sales…and the heavy rains, thunder and lightning coming in will crush our ability to go, ticket sales and trips today. All trips canceled, if you have purchased tickets for Thursday we will be contacting you to reschedule or refund in full.  We really want to go-but mother nature says otherwise.
