The only bad weather in Havasu is wind, that's the worst 4 letter word in boating. ;)

If I go and the boat stays parked and I'm forced to have a good time on dry land, well I think I can deal with that :D

Absolute great day on the water. Got to run the hell out of my boat and enjoyed the eff out of it. I love Parker, don't get me wrong, its my go to place to boat. But coming up to the lake and letting the boat stretch her legs is amazing. Loved it!! Spent the day with good friends, enough said. Here's a little boat porn for you. The boats were simply amazing again this year. Enjoy.

We had a blast!! Thank you for helping out with the boat, appreciate it. I could have spent another night easily, but yeah left early Sunday to take the boat back to Parker and head home. Good times for sure!! :D

Kind of a bad experience at the Marina. Sat night when we checked on the boat, the two old guys at the guard shack were cool when I asked if I could leave the boat there for the night. They said yeah no problem at all. Very nice guys.

Sunday am when I went to pick it up, this old crotchety guy was all up in my ass over it. "you can't leave your boat here, blah blah blah". Yeah well its already been left here so now what? You gotta pay another $20 to get it. Hahaha. Okay crotchety old guy, here's your $20 have a great day.

Yes. DCB paid the helo to take running shots of each and every boat. They had boats line up at the end of the channel and leave one at a time. Every boat that wanted aerial photos was able to get then. Tom Pink Taco was in the helo taking the pics.

Very cool. Perhaps someone will uploaded some to this thread.

Talking to Tom, he said those pics are the property of DCB. Not sure what they are going to do with them.
