Hey Jerry!

There was a visual this morning of 28″ and since the sun is hiding, I would assume the level reading on the site is pretty accurate. Get out there!!

ckheaton replied to the topic Need loaner boat for spring clinic fits 245# person in the forum Gear Exchange 1 year, 5 months ago

Likely will need the mans height to fit him properly?

But any large creek boat should work, if he is very tall you need to ask for something like:

Jackson mega rocker or a Pyranha Everest

The STL team river runner club has some big boats – He wouldn’t happen to be a veteran?
ckheaton replied to the topic Winter Pool Sessions / Jan Feb in the forum General Discussion 1 year, 6 months ago

The pool is such a great opportunity to learn – My son, Xander (5) got much more comfortable i…[Read more]

Hey Voodoodriver, yes our last Saturday session is today. You can drop in – just give the lifeguard $5 before you leave.
ckheaton replied to the topic Report from the Saint in the forum General Discussion 1 year, 6 months ago

2.65 Ft Monday Morning…. The water is coming and coming slow. Hopefully it goes down slow for those that work during the week!

Anyway – I added links to gauges at the top of the site for quick reference. 🙂

Who’s ready to at least slide over wet rocks?
