Funny thing is that people have been going to Powell for years with 18 - 20 foot boats... the Blue Canoe would have no problems.   :good

You don't end up playing in the main channel anyways, go find a nice quiet canyon and you almost have your own private lake (San Juan arm is especially nice for getting away from people)

I think we need to plan a HD Lake Powell trip w/ a few housboats... I'll pitch for part of one.   :good

I know TT&B and a few other peeps have a trip planned this summer.  I think they are shore camping though, no houseboats.   :stupid

You're using the word "justify" when talking about boats???  :stupid  :stupid  :beat  :beat  :D

If we can split a Houseboat several ways, it wouldn't be that much for a week or so...

This summer is out for me, but we should start to make plans for next year.  :good
