Catawba Queen
I have my Father visiting me at the moment, was thinking of going up to Lake Norman to go on the Catawba Queen
Any body done this?
Is it worth doing?
Any other suggestions for short (1-2hours) boat rides, other than Lake Lure been there twice already and probably will end up back there this weekend.

if your just looking for the boat ride its nice. You can also get a meal while riding. If you have time afterwards check out the deuling pianos that is always a blast.

I went on the CQ a few yrs back - overall I'd rate the experience as a B-
IMO, the extra $7 for lunch does not provide very good value for money, but the excursion itself was pleasant enough.
The most-heard comments while on the trip were "Wow - look at the size of that house!"

How about renting a boat yourself , probably pretty expensive. |
