					Why is Lake Havasu so popular with big fast boats?

What you've "heard" will probably be the complete opposite once you've spent a few relaxing days in Havi.  My parents retired and moved there from SoCal 3 years ago, and love it. There's always something going on, Wen. nights at MadDogs, thurs. afternoon hot rod gatherings etc..  Spring Break has nothing to do w/it, they aren't boaters. Those are just college kids looking to drink, party, and get some sun for a few days. 
 
Havasu is great because its only 35mins to Parker, 2.5hrs to Vegas, and a mornings drive to SoCal.  As far as the Skater/MTI comment, those boats aren't that big in the water. Havasu is plenty big enough for those boats. If you want a larger body of water to run those boats in, Just take a 2hr drive up I-40 to 93, drive up to Boulder City and launch at Lake Mead, beautiful lake and there's hardly anyone on it, why? Because they're all in Havasu. Why? Because Havasu has the bridge, the channel, the turtle bar, the springs, topoc 66, pirate cove, "eye candy=hot chicks", etc etc etc. 
 
What's cool about the Colorado River is that you have Havasu, Parker, Mead, & Mohave all within a 3hr drive of each other. All four of those are awesome places to boat and all just a mornings drive from SoCal.  Havasu really is a cool little town, you should make an effort to spend a few days there someday, I think you'd love it!

He knows how to push the buttons and does a good job at it.  Just look at the responses here....  
I personally find it amusing!   
 
Let me just say, I have a jet boat and am no way ever offended of what he says about them. 
			
		 
	 
 I think it's funny that people still react after all these years. I've know of him for a year and I've already caught on...wait did I just let the shit out of the bag?

 Eddie you're right, it's all about outlook/perspective... When I saw your post I instantly thought of this episode of EARLY Beverly Hillbillys... Start watching at 9:30 to 12:30....  LMAO!!! Ole Jed and I would have gotten along just fine!!!
