Yes it has, headed to Huntington Saturday, hopefully it has slowed down:
Maybe headed up to Marrietta sometime in July.
 
We went down river this past weekend.
We stopped at Manchester Island and there was a bunch of boats there having a big time. Then went on to Ripley Ohio
Boat Club . Great place to visit . Good food, cold beer, & band.
You can also walk a couple blocks into town and visit .
Just me and my 10yr old grandson went.
He will never forget that 180 mile trip.
 
We are hoping everything opens up by July so we ca attend Jimmy Buffett at River Bend in Cincy this summer. Would like to see others on here there. July 13th I think.
 
Buffett is scheduled for July 13 this summer at Riverbend in Cincy. We plan to attend.
The water temp will warm quickly with all this rain we are getting. Currently its at 40 degrees.
Bad news is it will be a while before the river is boater friendly.
 
boated down from the Winfield Pool of the Kanawha River to Holiday Point Marina on the Ohio River at MP 339 Saturday. It was a great ride in our new to us 2006 44DB.
Very happy with the boat, looking forward to summer.
 
will be headed to Buffett at Riverbend in Cincy on July 13th. Be going to Jeff Rubys on the evening of the 14th for a great steak. I assume no one on here boats close to Cincinnati since I never see any response.
 
looks like we are going to see Buffett at Riverbend Cincy, cannot believe anyone on this
not going. Be staying at Four Seasons Marina in Cincy also.

Grew up there , and lived and boated there in the mid/late90s. He used to do 5 shows in a row, and you could almost walk across the River boat to boat.

Get there early and anchor so you can see the big screen in the back of the house either a little up or down river. I preferred a little down river.

Best seat in the house!

Where do you boat at sir.

It’s been a few years but getting back on the water this season. We typically boat near shore waters between Vermilion and Sandusky Bay. Also day trips to the Erie Islands. We live near Akron, Oh so we also will be on Portage Lakes, WestBranch, and SpringField Lake.
Sometime would like to head over to see Maumee Bay near Toledo and also around Cleveland.
If been to Cleveland hundreds of times, never on the water.

I’ve also heard great things about the Ohio River. Would be fun to trailer down there sometime.

what about yourself?
 
The Ohio River in the Ironton, Ashland , & Huntington area.
 
Plan on being in Charleston Wv , Kanawha River for the Stern Wheel Regatta on the 4th July weekend. Anyone headed that way?
 
Headed to Blennerhassett yacht club in belfry Ohio this weekend. We are attending what they call their pit party. Boatman I think this is getting close to your territory.
