Paddlewheel Cruises: A Step Back in Time

Immerse yourself in the enchanting allure of yesteryear with our paddlewheel cruises. For many travelers, it’s the perfect combination of classic elegance and modern comfort.

Our paddlewheel cruisers stand as iconic symbols of a bygone era, evoking the golden age of river travel when these iconic boats ruled the waters.

The grand paddlewheels, reminiscent of a time when steam-powered propulsion was the height of innovation, infuse each voyage with a sense of nostalgia. As you step aboard, you’ll find yourself transported to a period of elegance and refinement, while still enjoying modern amenities.

History in Motion

There’s something truly captivating about the rhythmic churning of the paddlewheel as it propels the vessel along historic waterways. It’s a reminder of the past, a connection to the days when these vessels were the lifeblood of transportation and trade along rivers.

But the experience doesn’t end with the propulsion. Onboard, a world of entertainment and camaraderie unfolds. Many of our paddlewheel cruises offer themed parties, live performances, and interactive activities that help foster a sense of community among fellow passengers.

As you share in the revelry, you’ll forge connections that span generations and backgrounds, making memories that last long after the cruise concludes.

Sights and Sounds

Picture yourself in a boat on a river … cruising down the Ohio River, absorbing the picturesque landscapes that unfold before you. Or imagine navigating the winding waters of the Columbia and Snake rivers, tracing the paths of explorers who ventured into uncharted territories. Each destination tells its own story, and our paddlewheel cruises give you the unique opportunity to be a part of that narrative.

In a world where speed and efficiency often take precedence, paddlewheel cruises invite you to slow down and savor every moment. Let the gentle rocking of the boat, the soothing sounds of water, and the grandeur of the paddlewheel transport you to a time when journeys were as important as the destinations themselves.

If you’re seeking an escape from the ordinary, a voyage that intertwines history and modern comfort, then step aboard our paddlewheel cruises. As you relive the charm of a bygone era and discover new horizons, you’ll find that these cruises offer a unique blend of nostalgia and adventure, an experience that is truly timeless.

Compliance status

Screen-reader and keyboard navigation.

Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all of the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside of it.Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.

Disability profiles supported in our website

Epilepsy Safe Mode: this profile enables people with epilepsy to use the website safely by eliminating the risk of seizures that result from flashing or blinking animations and risky color combinations.
Visually Impaired Mode: this mode adjusts the website for the convenience of users with visual impairments such as Degrading Eyesight, Tunnel Vision, Cataract, Glaucoma, and others.
Cognitive Disability Mode: this mode provides different assistive options to help users with cognitive impairments such as Dyslexia, Autism, CVA, and others, to focus on the essential elements of the website more easily.
ADHD Friendly Mode: this mode helps users with ADHD and Neurodevelopmental disorders to read, browse, and focus on the main website elements more easily while significantly reducing distractions.
Blindness Mode: this mode configures the website to be compatible with screen-readers such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack. A screen-reader is software for blind users that is installed on a computer and smartphone, and websites must be compatible with it.
Keyboard Navigation Profile (Motor-Impaired): this profile enables motor-impaired persons to operate the website using the keyboard Tab, Shift+Tab, and the Enter keys. Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.

Additional UI, design, and readability adjustments

Font adjustments – users, can increase and decrease its size, change its family (type), adjust the spacing, alignment, line height, and more.
Color adjustments – users can select various color contrast profiles such as light, dark, inverted, and monochrome. Additionally, users can swap color schemes of titles, texts, and backgrounds, with over 7 different coloring options.
Animations – epileptic users can stop all running animations with the click of a button. Animations controlled by the interface include videos, GIFs, and CSS flashing transitions.
Content highlighting – users can choose to emphasize important elements such as links and titles. They can also choose to highlight focused or hovered elements only.
Audio muting – users with hearing devices may experience headaches or other issues due to automatic audio playing. This option lets users mute the entire website instantly.
Cognitive disorders – we utilize a search engine that is linked to Wikipedia and Wiktionary, allowing people with cognitive disorders to decipher meanings of phrases, initials, slang, and others.
Additional functions – we provide users the option to change cursor color and size, use a printing mode, enable a virtual keyboard, and many other functions.

Yuma River Tours Ply Lower Colorado River

Yuma River Tours Is Once Again Open

Charles Stankovich - Owner
Lower Colorado River Excursions
10882 N. Fishers Landing Rd
Yuma, AZ 85365

Yuma River Tours (YRT) offers jet boat and sternwheeler tours on the lower Colorado River.

Their office is located at 1920 Arizona Avenue in Yuma, Ariz., but their round-trip tours are based at Fisher's Landing at the south of Martinez Lake.

Although open year round, Yuma River Tours' busy season is winter, when the weather is enjoyable for sightseeing.

In 1987, Ron Knowlton, his parents Smokey and Sheila Knowlton, and brother Randy Knowlton - all Coast Guard-licensed captains formed Yuma River Tours. Smokey and Sheila are both retired now but still occasionally participate in tours or events.

Today Ron serves as president and shares captain duties with Loyd Robertson and occasionally brother Randy Knowlton. Ron's wife Julie and daughters Danelle (who also has her U.S. Coast Guard Captain license), age 20, and Jodi, age 17, are also active in the business.

The Knowltons' experience on the lower Colorado River can be traced back to the 1940s, when Cecil and Ruth Knowlton, Ron's grandparents, began boating and exploring the lower Colorado River, eventually becoming permanent residents of Martinez Lake in 1957.

For Yuma River Tours' employees, this business is special because of the history, the scenery, and the variety of people. There are local residents - some who know the river well, and others who are amazed to discover it.

With the many winter visitors, YRT enjoys multi-generational family excursions and groups of friends. Tour-bus groups from across the United States and Canada, RVers, car and motorcycle clubs join the tours to see the wonderful sights of this area.

Businesses, clubs, organizations, and churches use the tours for meetings, employee outings, parties, and employee recruiting. Schools and youth groups do Colorado River field trips with YRT. They also shuttle canoeists and kayakers upriver in groups, or individually along with their jet-boat tours.

The business started with one 18-foot passenger jet boat. YRT now also runs two 40-foot passenger jet boats and a 49-passenger sternwheeler paddleboat.

Their jet-boat tours are "active" in that they stop and let passengers disembark to see points of interest in the beautiful Imperial Wildlife Refuge - migratory and native birds, a mining cabin built in the 1800s, Picacho State Park in California, and Indian petroglyphs.

Lunch is at Norton's Landing, a historic steamboat site that was once a thriving mining town.

The is a double-decker sternwheeler tour boat with an open-air upper deck and an enclosed main deck. There is a small snack bar on board where passengers can purchase non-alcoholic beverages and snack items.

Offered are three-hour, non-stop tours on the , either daytime trips downriver with an optional boxed lunch, or evening sunset dinner cruises with a hot buffet dinner served on board.

Prices for YRT standard trips range from $38 to $89 per person, and they are glad to provide quotations for custom tours and charters. Additional information is available on the Web site: yumarivertours.com.

Reservation requests are accepted from the Web site link or at our e-mail address: . Because the YRT calendar changes quickly, the current schedule is only available by phone at (928) 783-4400.

Duck Boat tour operator rescues baby, father who fell into river

Duck Boat rescue FILE PHOTO: One of Boston's famous Duck Boats was in the right place at the right time, rescuing a small child and his father from the Charles River. (vivalapenler - stock.adobe.com)

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — A baby fell into the Charles River in Cambridge, Massachusetts, but luckily a Duck Boat tour operator was nearby.

State troopers said the child, who was under the age of 2, fell into the river after he squeezed through the railing, WFXT reported. The child’s father jumped in to rescue him.

But a passing Duck Boat — an amphibious watercraft popular with tourists in Boston — scooped the father and son up, dropping them off at a dock nearby.

The boat Olga Ironsides was on a training run so the only people on board were Mike Rosario and Kevin O’Neill.

“I was doing my loop and when I turned back around Kevin noticed a group of people waving to us,” Rosario told WFXT . “And then he noticed a man in the water and that’s when we realized somebody fell in.”

Rosario said the father was holding on to his son, while also holding onto a retaining wall. First responders had tried to lower a life ring down to them.

These pictures were captured by photographer Dominic Demasi who was across the river at the time. @boston25 pic.twitter.com/2qbvpJRuvZ — Ryan Breslin (@ryanjbreslin) August 19, 2024

“So there’s like little slots in the rocks,” Rosario said. “So Dad was holding on there while he was holding the child.”

Rosario got the boat in a safe spot, while O’Neill was at the back of the boat and lowered the ladder.

“And then I just walked down a few steps into the water,” he said -- close enough to take the baby from his Dad’s arm and bring him aboard,” O’Neill said.

“I was thinking, just hold on to this kid and totally concentrate on just getting him up on the duck boat safe. And I was also saying, you’re okay, you’re okay. I don’t have any kids of my own and I’m not very good with babies, but because of the adrenaline I wasn’t thinking about any of that.”

First responders checked out the pair, and the little boy was taken to an area hospital as a precaution.

The CEO of the boat tour company said their training was at the right place and the right time.

“Both are valued employees, even before this rescue,” Cindy Brown, Boston Duck Tours CEO, told WFXT . “Mike and Kevin have been outstanding team members at Boston Duck Tours for many years. I’m thankful that the training they have received, along with very lucky timing, put them in a position to help save this father and child. I could not be prouder of their quick thinking and smart actions.”
