High lake levels have taken another toll on area marinas and boaters.

Riverside Marina has had to cut the season short for some boaters unable to safely access their boats due to high water levels.

In total, the Windsor Port Authority says that thirty-six boaters have been displaced due to persistent flooding of docks since May, costing the Port Authority $42,000 in refunds.

“We were hopeful that water levels would eventually recede to more normal levels, but as July rolled in, there is no reduction in lake levels in sight. We decided to put safety first by closing down docks 4/5, and refunding our affected customers for the entire season” says Steve Salmons, President and CEO of Port Windsor.
