We took a labor Day weekend boat trip to Cincinnati for the annual WEBN fireworks. This is one of the largest displays in the country with about 500,000 people attending. The fireworks are shot from barges in the Ohio river and off of bridges. I stayed mostly out of the heaviest boat concentration ( closest to town ).....it was wild !

P.S....turtle can I add this to CSR videos ?
 
nice job!

we don't bother with the fireworks anymore. We went up to the camp which is 35 miles upstream from downtown. About 2:30am one of the drunken boaters locked through at Meldahl and then ran his boat aground right at the mouth of our creek. Fortunately no one was seriously hurt. They happened to go ashore at the best possible spot. They had the boat off the shoreline by 8am.
 
It's linked to clubsearay youtube channel.
 
Great video. We were there, but on the public landing with the boat safely on the trailier in my driveway. We are on the westside of the city so the run back to the ramp is a crowded one with a long wait to pull out. I would rather keep my little boat at home. Maybe when I talk the wife into moving up to a bigger boat with a bathroom we will see them from the water.
 
Thanks for the video. I used to go every year. I've seen them from almost every angle, except from the water. I'm just not sure our little boat is up to it.
