It's against National Park Service regulations to trade or buy/rent a week on a Lake Powell Houseboat. Lake Mead is, I think, a different story, but you may want to check.
On Powell, if I own a week on a HB and I want to trade for your Havasu condo, and if I get caught, the HB loses it's water rights and slip/buoy. It has to do with the exclusive concession agreement ARAMARK has with the NPS thjat says only ARAMARK can rent HB's on Powell. You can own a share, but you can't trade that share except to other owners within the boat's list of owners.
The easiest way to get a HB on Powell for cheap is to buy a share on one and then sell it over the next season. You'll be out of pocket until you sell but then you should be made whole. It's definitely alot cheaper than renting. If you have any other questions, please let me know. I've managed a multi owner LP HB for a number of years and am fairly familar with the process.
