The U.S. Coast Guard is advising mariners there will be over 150 high-speed vessels and larger than normal concentrations of recreational vessels throughout Kentucky Lake and Lake Barkley beginning today and continuing through Sunday for the Kuttawa Harbor Cannonball Run.
Coast Guard officials say mariners should exercise caution and maintain a sharp lookout while in these areas. Mariners are also advised to report any unsafe conditions to sector Ohio Valley via VHF Channel 16 or via landline at (502) 779-5422.
