Question Rendezvousers sp? , Are electric powered water canons going to be allowed?  I am working on an ultra air foiled one that pumps 485 gpm , lake water. At a distance of 100 feet. 
Only problem so far is the really long extension cord needed.  And waterproofing all.
Just about packed and can't wait to go.

I've been reading the posts about the water being high there, what's the weather been like?  I was out on KY Lake for about 4 days two weeks ago and it stormed almost every day, and the temps were in the high 90's and the humidity was out through the roof.  I hope you are far enough north of us here that it will be real pleasant.

   the water is up so beach swimming is out. but our raft up location should be good. everyone needs to bring an anchor (surprisingly some boaters dont have one-figure that out) and maybe 100 ft of line to tie the bow off. i will make some stakes and bring a hammer for that purpose. and something to float on. and lunch of course. i will iron out the details on friday night. as to the weather (keep a good thought i guess), hot but not as hot as last week. if you are staying aboard i would have some sort of hatch screen. i was told that the water level is expected to be down by next week. again keep a good thought. we bought a couple of water canons on e bay for 30 bucks   supposed to shoot 70 feet.
