Day 28 of 30 #WhyRiverCruising

Yes, 2013 saw high water levels, but 1501 levels were even higher. Water levels impact commerce and trade significantly, with towns along the river marking the historic high water.

Some companies I collaborate with have strategies to navigate lower droughts and sail during low water times when others can’t. They engage in ship swaps to bypass problematic river areas and even offer bus tours when water levels become problematic.

Working closely with clients, I provide insights into potential issues based on 30-year averages for spring rain and summer heat. I also share my experiences on how companies adapt when challenges arise.
