The steamboating group at Lake Noxamixon, I know most of us want to see pictures of boats and machinery, but a few people who are involved in the steamboating scene should get onto the site.

My wife Katharine likes to take her Kayak, but after a few miles, she usually opts on letting the steamer tow her back!
