Capt. Dan has been working hard getting the Emita II ready for her May 23 season opener, an all day cruise from Macedon to Newark, NY. And, the Lockmaster fleet will be coming out of their covers soon for some quick cosmetic work and charters beginning in early May.
The most exciting news here at Mid-Lakes remains the refurbishment of the old Lockmaster Keuka. She is a 42' boat, and was formerly laid out inside similar to the current 42' boats in the fleet. (Here's a link to the layouts if you aren't familiar: http://www.midlakesnav.com/lockmaster/theboats.html. Our new design changes the interior quite dramatically, making an interior with a more spacious, luxurious accommodations for a couple. It will still feature two heads and a shower, but will have upgrades in the galley (which moves aft), a queen size bed and lounge area forward.
Here are some pictures of the progress to date. There will be some big changes to the exterior of the boat too. But we'll save that for another blog when we have to pictures to post. Let us know what you think!
