OUCH!
Utah Lake water depth reported by Fox 13...
as 3 feet deep
Please Note
Our Catalina 25 Swing Keels draft 5' 0"
keel down.
I know my math skills are terrible
but Utah Lake is for sure not 3 feet deep, as reported.
The harbor is another story, but that's why we asked our legislators to appropriate
$1.5 million
to dredge (maintain) the harbor.
The harbor depth was also inaccurately reported as 1.3' deep.
Again our swing keels draft 2' 8" all the way up.
There's no way we could get out in 1.3' of water.
the Provo Marina does need to be maintained...
but the media needs to get their "sensationalistic" reporting correct!
And you guys are going to be good on your word?
Right?
Appropriations for dredging were put in the bank back in spring, 2015.
So it's been over one year since the green light was turned on.

And that's all I have to say about that...
Thank you to all the brave men and women who have served,
and are currently serving our country.
If you know someone who has served,
or see someone in uniform,
take a moment to thank them...
it means a lot.
