Tuesday is the day to cruise the Madison Lakes.
DAY 3-TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 5, 2017 MADISON
The home of the University of Wisconsin – Madison and the Wisconsin Badgers, and the Yahara Lake Chain.  The Yahara lake chain bisects the capital City of Madison and provides many miles of waterways.
We’ll start early with boat launching at 9 a.m. on Lake Waubesa.   We’ll gather at Christy’s Landing on Lake Waubesa where we’ll have coffee, juice and danishes available.  Then we’ll begin a spectacular boating excursion through Madison’s Yahara Lake Chain. ACBS members will cruise on three connected lakes (Waubesa, Monona, and Mendota) via a guided water tour that includes viewing some of Madison’s spectacular sites. Whether it is seeing the Madison skyline, cruising past the Wisconsin State Capitol, or enjoying a beverage at the University of Wisconsin Memorial Union Terrace, skippers and their crew will enjoy a full day on the water.
The tour includes passing through a unique lock system that lifts the boats to one of Wisconsin’s largest lakes. The lunch stop will be at UW Union Terrace-Sunset Deck/Tripp Commons Deck.  After lunch, we’ll take a break from boating, with tours of the UW venue (Porter Boathouse home of the UW rowing teams, Camp Randall Stadium), and Governor’s mansion.   
The day-long event culminates where we started at Christy’s Landing with its Tiki Bar and outdoor dining.  On the menu for dinner is Barbeque.   
Tuesday night hotel accommodations are at either the Country Inn or AmericInn, approximately 6 miles from Christy’s and the nearby boat launch.  Parking is available at both hotels.  Bright and early Wednesday morning we head east to the City of Milwaukee and Lake Michigan for more boating.
