Yes - the boat ramp is South of 270, just south of the City of St. Louis
water works.
Three man Seadoo - holds two grown men well.
If multiple people arrive - we could make a few trips. It shouldn't take
but 5 minutes to reach the destination from the ramp.
Yes - so far Barry has committed to the adventure. He first inquired about
water taxi to Scotch Jimmie and I suggested doing River Rat and Gabaret on
the way.
Myotis indicated River Rat has a steep bank adjacent. We may have to drop
off nearby and walk a little if necessary.
I have boated the area before and have some familiarity.

The plan:
9:00 AM - Meet at boat launch ramp on Riverview Drive. Seadoo shuttle to River Rat and Gabaret. Possible sightseeing downtown, chain of rocks, and the Missouri/Mississippi confluence if we can get over the rocks. I also will placing the first of a series of new caches along Riverfront Trail.
Barramus inquired about taking him up to do North Passage on the Missouri - but I wouldn't do that to anyone I like.
Next drive up and do Lewis and Clark 2. Then drive up and do Scotch Jimmie. Water taxi will be Seadoo or john boat depending on number of occupants. As always, water taxi service TO the island is free.

Really now, I might just be interested in the water shuttle details. Are we
gonna meet at 0530 again??

Barramus and Island Dave will be attempting an ampibious assault on River Rat and Gabaret Island Sunday morning, with Lewis and Clark and Scotch Jimmie afterwards.
Water Taxi service to Scotch Jimmie will be available.
