Lake Tahoe has always been a favorite vacation destination of ours, and we’ve always thought replacing our sold home (2012) with a new one. We have been Tahoe boat owners for many years, and sold our most recent Chris Craft in 2019. After considering our living and boating options, we thought about the fun we’d have on a liveaboard yacht at Lake Tahoe. So after a little research, we started looking for boats and yacht brokers. This was a big decision for us. We remembered meeting Richard Boland several years ago at the Alameda Boat Show, so one day in early 2019 we headed to Alameda to visit his office. Richard greeted us with enthusiasm. He explained the Riviera product line, took us on a cruise on a 36’ Riviera SUV, and allowed us to experience yachting on the Bay. After discussion, and considering our needs, Richard suggested a Riviera 395 SUV. We then began the process of detailing the boat specifications and décor. What fun! Richard kept us fully advised as to optional equipment we needed to enjoy the boat at Tahoe. Finally, we took the plunge and ordered the boat. Richard flew to the Riviera factory in Australia twice to oversee production, finally flying to Long Beach to oversee the off-loading of our boat after delivery to Long Beach. A captain brought the boat up from Long Beach, and it arrived in mid-April of ’20. We transported the boat to Lake Tahoe in July of ’20 and spent three lovely summer months on the Lake. We usually anchored off a quiet beach for 2 or 3 nights, coming back to our slip to reprovision. What a wonderful summer on the water with friends and family! Richard was with us every step of the way – included in the boat cost was transportation from Australia, piloting the boat to Alameda and transportation to Lake Tahoe. There was not one unreturned phone call beyond 15 minutes, availability at all times for problem solving, and resolution of warranty issues. Further, he has made himself available to assist us in the re-delivery to Lake Tahoe this summer, and help with scheduled engine service before then. We have never had service of this magnitude from any company. He has become more than a boat broker to us. He is our friend and our “go to yacht professional”. There is no one I would recommend more for anyone’s yachting needs.
Crews on scene say the plane’s tail number is N548SF. And according to the FAA, the aircraft with that number is registered to Wejebe.
Former Collier EMS Chief Jeff Page was chartering a boat when the crash happened. He said he saw the aircraft take off from the Everglades City Airport after 4:30 p.m. Friday and then felt the winds shift. more
Page went on to describe the actual crash.
#1 on the water is not only the slogan at Mercury, it’s a fact. There is a reason Mercury Marine continues to dominate in every engine propelled water sport. Having been a part of the Mercury Team for 17 years has allowed me to realize it’s what underneath the cowling that matters most. In addition to the Mercury engines they also spin what many consider to be the best props in the industry made right here in the USA. Check out the Mercury Fury prop by clicking here: here

VIP day was the brain child of the Eastern Lake Erie Charter Boat Association. Charter captains Joe Jemiolo, Lance Ehrhardt, Phil Swiatkowski, President and Captain Larry Jones and Zen Olow put on their thinking caps and devised a way to bring the beauty and importance of our Lake Erie Fishery to the attention of those people who may not be aware of what they have in their backyard. Business people, politicians, special-interest groups, in short anyone who might be able to enhance and preserve the beauty of some of our natural resources. more
People were sent invitations to go out on Lake Erie for a free half-day fishing charter provided by both Chautauqua and Erie counties charter boats. After the day of fishing, the guests and helpers were treated to a dinner. As in years past, dinner was a fish fry of fresh-caught walleye with all the side dishes and even delicious Ray’s cheesecake and other sweet delights for desert. Dinner was usually at the Northern Chautauqua Conservation Club and the hall was filled to capacity. COVID-19 brought that to a halt. But COVID couldn’t kill a good thing. The ELECBA were shut down for a while, and finally allowed to function with constraints. People wanted to get outside. Fishing was a great escape, and what better way to experience fishing than on a charter trip where the gear and know-how are all provided. They even clean your fish. more
COVID shut down border lines, including Canada, which had a booming tourist trade for years, but that was now off-limits. People were looking for other outlets and Lake Erie provided that opportunity. Captain Frank Schoenacker told the audience that the charter industry was concerned they would lose membership because of COVID, but instead they grew. With Phase 1, the captains were able to work. Tourists were coming for weekend getaways. Charter captains become tour guides. Customers are asking where is a good place to eat, where can they stay, where is a good place to visit? Captains are in the entertainment business. If they show their customers a good time, they will return. here
Jim Steel, along with his wife, Dianne, operate Innovative Outdoors, a sporting goods store as well as outdoor video production and a walleye tournament on Lake Erie on Aug. 20-21. Steel commented that there are 75 captains who are currently members. Think of them as individual small-business owners, who are often the voice of the local fishermen in the area. When the tourists come to our area to fish and see the conditions of the marinas, the need for dredging and for waterway access, they question the captains, who in turn ask those who run the show. What are we going to do about it? The tourists started coming here, and we need to keep them coming back and bringing their friends. [links]
