Bittersweet...that's the feeling right now. I started the business in 2009 to help fund both of my daughters' college education. I am ridiculously thankful to all of our guests and partners over the past 14 years who enjoyed our unending quest to be the best option for Cayuga Lake cruises while helping my kids achieve their dreams! Upon their graduation, my attention turned to building a beautiful lake home. Again, business boomed and made a huge impact with the change orders! Alas, it is time to move on. I thank my captains, Mike Willard and Scott Hoffman for their attention to our guests and superior nautical abilities. Adding Satira Aarne as my special first mate for the last season made sure that our guests were spoiled even more! Our partners always went above and beyond to pamper our guests and truly make them feel special. But, most of all, it was YOU-our guests who made it a pure joy to come to "work" everyday. I'm going to miss you all. I worked like a captain. Now, it's time to party like a pirate! Cheers to a bright and beautiful 2024! Capt. Rick
