Well things are starting to look up. Yesterday the Governor announced we will be moving to phase 3 on May 29th and that will all up to 10 people per boat where previously it was only 2 people per boat. This will allow us to start running fishing charters again!
This announcement did not include any guidelines or requirements for operating a charter. We are holding off until June 5th to run charters so we have enough time to check with the state and our insurance to make sure we are prepared for any requirements there may be related to Covid-19.
What we are still not sure of is if Chicago will be opening their harbors by June 1st. Its looking like they will not. If Chicago is not open we will be running our fishing charters out of Waukegan Harbor which is about 30 miles north of downtown Chicago until we can return to our home port of 31st Street.
Thats all for now. Hope everyone is staying healthy.
Captain Brian
