    Best ice on the Ohio River, it is older but out of the main river and the people are awesome. Much better than Owensboro free wall. 6 ft depth at barge or dock. Must stop for Redneck boating.

    Loved the stay against fixed barges. Live music was awesome 6/9/24. They have Desiel at 4.18 per gallon. Electric, water, restrooms, pump out. $1 per foot. Out of current, but only 6-8 ft deep. Pet friendly and 2 outdoor bars. Great views of Evansville on the Ohio. New owners said they are updating it.

    Pump-out is available for transients. One of the cleaner and newer marinas. Good Security, protected from wind and current. Small store, but access to many restaurants and stores. Close to downtown. Cleanest Bathroom, Wifi, Laundry, showers, Nice Dog park and walking park. Diesel and gasoline above $5.09 currently

    Ok, place to stay before locking through Wilson lock and dam which is a pain. Stayed with friends on the firestorm. Went into town to eat because restaurant kitchen was nasty. $1.25 per foot, slips not so great. Courtesy car available, internet is good

    Nice older marina, short handed today and traffic was a cluster. Boats pulled in front of us at fuel dock on a windy day. No cell service available at marina and long winding inlet to fuel dock. Very nice Marina manager and fuel was 4.099 a gallon. Nice little store and very helpful. AGLCA AND BOATUS DISCOUNT! $1 a foot. Didn't stay docks are wooden older not maintained.

    5 miles to the end of the Tennessee River. Knoxville has a great river walk area and close to Calhoun's on the river and U of T. Loved the trip a free city dock.

    Angler Marina at Goose Pond was awesome. Did a great bottom job on my boat. John and Beth are good people. Goose Pond Marina was ok. Not very helpful. Staff is kind of unfriendly. Must think they are not paid to help boaters.
