My parents started me out on the lower river, then Havasu in the late 80's. We then spent 18+ years boating out of Echo Bay on Lake Mead. For a short time we had a timeshare on Lake Powell. The family returned to Havasu in 2008, after the drought conditions was making Lake Mead harder to access.
We run our Hallett 240 OB, year round now on Havasu.
