==History Owners Larry & Mary Richling purchased what was formerly the "Belle of Brownville" and re-named it the River City Star and moved it from Bellevue to Omaha. That Riverboat was retired and the Richlings bought a new, smaller 145 passenger Riverboat and it is currently in use as the new River City Star. The Richlings had the new boat brought from Lake Mead on two semi-truck trailers.

Cruising

The River City Star's cruising season usually begins in April and ends in October or November, with its cruising schedule peaking for the summer months. The boat regularly schedules public and private cruises ranging from one hour to two-and-a-half hours in duration, and it is not uncommon for the boat to cruise three or four times in one day.
