Anyone know why the boat line has been shut down "until further notice"?

Call the Coast Guard-most likely a safety violation

I swear no one told me ahead of time, that it was against the rules to bring my pack rod...and do a little live-bait trolling during the tour.

They are replacing it with a paddle boat called the Sumter Queen.

I believe their last cruise was plagued by Legionnaire's Disease. Additionally, they lost power and the toilets could not be flushed, air conditioning was inop, and there was no ice, therefore no Margaritas or Daquiris.

They are going to be dredging Lake Sumter to allow for the larger cruise ships. It will bring more tourists to the area.

Which will sprout more hamburger joints. Just what we need here in The Villages!

Stewards from the cruise lines will be going to the squares in advance of passenger debarking...and saving seats.

For the first time in many years the Villages will have a community fireworks display on the 4th of July. Technicians are prepping the boat to launch fireworks from the middle of Lake Sumter!

Totally laughed out loud

It's reserved for the next Johnny Depp movie -- The Pirates of Bengay

They cancelled it because someone peed in Lake Sumter.

There is no pee in Lake Sumter.

We like it that way.
