no ones going to flame you, i agree i would not want that to happen in my city, havasu has been known for years as a party town just like maimi, key west and all the other hot spots to party. should they close those too? does anyone go to palm springs anymore for spring break? everyone was run out of that town and now its a bunch of blue hairs. i go to havasu on a busy weekend knowing what to expect, if i wanted a more mellow spot i would go to a different lake.
Then why is it ok if it happens in Havasu? If you don't want it in your town, what is wrong with the residents and city council in LHC doing something to try and stop it in their town? I'm not slamming you, just playing devils advocate here.
back to the mooring issue, i think its a bad idea to charge people a spot or to close the channel down. going boating is already expensive enough with food, gas, launch, hotels etc.. now i have to pay for a spot to hang out and meet with friends?? its only going to push all the boaters somewhere else on the lake and make tensions even higher. i think they should open everything up to keep the people spread out over the lake.
Keep in mind that ANY cove you use on the AZ side of the lake you are obligated to pay the BLM fee. And believe me, the Ranger comes around to collect.
K26, I apologize if I hi-jakced your thread.
