like 20 minutes on the road and 5 or 10 on the water, I think. Not far anyway.

Be careful making that run if the water is down. Keep an eye out for my rudder.....its along there somewhere...:( :rolleyes: :D

If you are leaving from Avi to go south to gorge, at about 9:45, the Londen Jet goes by from Laughlin to London Bridge. Follow it. Also, there are 2 bad rock bars. One just south of Willow Valley, the other about a mile south (on AZ side) if you are not sure, float and follow, NOT CLOSELY, when someone motors past. South of Needles bridge, no problems. Or just avoid that part of the river. Good luck

rock bars? float? follow someone closely? Avoid that part of the river? ..not when you have a jet...I love that part of the river...but then again, I have a jetboat!

Its about a 15 minute boat ride from Topock to the Needles bridge at about 45-50mph...about another 10-12 minutes up to the AVI...you'll want to stay to the arizona side, the Cali side seems to have more submerged trees and junk...there are a couple of sandbars but if the river is up they are no problem...if its kinda of low watch for the big ripples, if it is real low then I wouldn't go up there with a prop...
Also, if you go in summer you may find no place to beach your boat at the AVI...you can always tie off to the dock and go get a pizza..then float back to Needles with pizza and beer!!
