Saskatoon Prairie Lily river boat owners look to retire [Video]

The owners of Saskatoon’s iconic riverboat the Prairie Lily say they’re setting sail for the last time in 2025, and they’re looking for someone else to take the helm.

“It’s with mixed feelings and immense gratitude that we announce our 2025 season will be our last,” co-owners Captain Mike and Joan Steckhan said in an emailed statement.

“We can’t put into words how much we appreciate all your support, kindness, and encouragement over the past dozen years. We’ve truly had a great ride, rather cruise, and it’s because of all of you, our crews over the years, and our beloved city, Saskatoon.”
