    Make sure the whiners and high maintenance bozos stay home. Everybody pitches in, cleans up, and pays 110% of anticipated costs up front. You give refunds if there's any left over.

        That ain't old age! I'm 35 and I'd like to think I'm just hitting my stride. Of course, my thinning hair betrays that assertion...damn hair
        Ok, ok, you convinced me, a beer bong will make the trip! Jeez, you guys are tough! I hear you on the hair, where the hell is it going??? Glad I grabbed my wife when I did!

        That is the truth! We made sure to carefully pick the crew for this outing based largely on that criteria. Luckily my close group is super laid back and not stingy.

        I am acting DJ (I have control issues with the music) and I have already started on the playlists. Great tunes are a must for any boat outing. Blender - got it, houseboat comes with it. I do need to figure out the gas situation, I thought the houseboat had a gas tank with a nozzle that we can use to fill up the Tige, but obvsiouly I need to figure out the costs of tehir gas versus bringing my own. We will only have two wakeboarders so we really will not burn a ton of gas riding. Still good point that I need to figure out.

          We got in the habit of taking the kegerator with 2 kegs for the week. Works great and cuts way down on the trash. If the gen does not run 24-7 as it doese on lake mead, through a bag ice on it.

          Anyone with a bad attitude for more than 10 min gets voted off the boat and has to go home.

            No Wake Zone - minimum 300 feet from houseboat. Yes, this should include PWCs!!!
