Hello All,

I'm new here. Have found many many interesting posts and links. Great site.

Back in '92 my wife and I attended Tall Stacks. We rode the Quad City Queen during one of the "races". I've used search engines trying to find photographs or information on Quad City Queen but haven't had any success. Do any of you know what happened to this boat?

Thanks,

Bill

QCQ

The QCQ was owned by Robert Kehl and was replaced by the larger MISSISSIPPI BELLE I in Bettendorf. Offhand I can't remember where she went, perhaps up to Stillwater?

Thanks for replying Judy. Is it possible she was renamed? I was really hoping to find a photo of her. I can't believe that we didn't take a picture of her that day. Still have my ticket stubs and the souvenir booklet but no photo.

Thanks again.

Here is a web site: St. Croix Boat and Packet Co.

I just realized the ANASTASIA is now part of their fleet too. (I was thinking she was still at East Alton). She was designed by Alan Bates and was the DOTTIE G at Rising Sun, until '01.
