Make it a late lunch, unless you have a jet. River doesn't come up 'till 11 or so. Where're launching at?

Get gas at Needles. It was only $4.50 last week while they were charging $5.25 to $5.75 a gallon at Moabi and Topoc.
I would think that the trip can be made on one tank of gas.

Thinking of launching just north of the casinos in Laughlin. Maybe start heading down around noon or so to get there by 1:30:idea:
Going south -
* Avi
* Needles Marina (be careful entering their marina if the water is low. The entrance can be pretty shallow)
* Park Moabi
* Golden Shores Marina
The water flows drop off quite a bit starting in August. Here is a phone number for Davis Dam water flow releases (928) 754-3666.
The daily releases are only in the 12,500 cfs (cubic feet per second). They measure releases in units operating. There are up to 5 at Davis and each unit represents about 4500 cfs. Typically they increase the number of units or water releases in the early afternoon. These increased waterflows don't make it downstream until mid afternoon.

Launch at the AVI. its a little fast, (water) but a good ramp and you can gas for $3.00 a gal
