Leaving Lake Powell...

[tuxonpup]

We're finally moving the Millennium Guppy closer to home! I worked a half day on Monday and headed up to Lake Powell circa lunch time with both of us off for the rest of the week. We got in close to sunset and spent the first night at the Wahweap resort, then picked up the boat from storage the next morning and dropped the mast before towing it into town to finish refurbishing the brakes. We dry camped on the Guppy that night after the work was done and the next morning headed South towards Lake Pleasant...

Thanks for sharing.

Those houseboats are gigantic! I've seen brochures and they are floating apartments.

Replacing that tow bar was a wise move. It's a common failure point and when it fails it's catastrophic.

Does the new marina have slips available? it looks pretty large.

Yep, you can get a 30' wet slip for $412 a month, or a little more than that at the next marina over Scorpion Bay. We're paying $118 a month for the self launch dry storage, and you can reserve a wet slip for $50 per day on a week's notice, which we'll probably do when having family/friends up for an outing. It was $50 a month cheaper up at Lake Powell, but we were never gonna have family/friends be able to pop up for a day out on the water. We'll see how many days we get under 100 degrees to make it worthwhile, but right now the water is freezing so hot days are a no go.
