The 2008 Friendship Cruise promises
to be an exciting holiday weekend for its participants.
The E.C.S.P. , a non-profit organization, has
announced the 46th running of the annual Friendship Cruise for
Memorial Day Weekend.
Friday May 23th thru
Monday May 26st.
The cruise begins in Green River,
Utah, down the pleasant Green River to the confluence of the mighty Colorado
and up the river to Moab, Utah. The trip is 184 miles and usually takes two or
three days to make the run, due to many natural and historic sites you may want
to explore. The well-organized cruise includes transportation of your vehicle
from Green River to Moab where it will be waiting for you at the Moab dock.
Cruise rescue boats, launching and docking facilities and assistance, plus radio communications for emergency messages are included in
the registration fee.
Please be advised that
larger boats and deep-v hulls are marginal in low water. Jet-skis, catamarans
and sailboats are not allowed. Pontoon boats must have a minimum of 150 hp
engine.
THERE ARE NO EXCEPTIONS.
Camping is done at your leisure, there are numerous places along both rivers to
camp.
Camp with
a group or by yourselves. Enjoy going through Utah’s
spectacular Canyon Country.
Boaters arrive in Moab all day
Sunday and Monday until 12:00 noon, for the disembarkation and travel home.
We hope to see you on the cruise
through time and history.
