Yep, that was us and our three cats. We had planned to be out again this week but postponed due to the October heat wave.

Here’s Charlie, he sometimes has to gear up because he has a licker problem.

You were right in front of us heading out, the dam no wake zone. I was with my best friend for many years. His wife is my wife's best friend and they play Yatzee non stop. So I had to snap this picture and send in to them. I told them I found their house boat!!!! They were like,,, heck yah,,, buy it!!!!

We passed you just before Oak Bay. We thought we might both be looking for the best spot in Oak at the same time but saw you continue on. Snapped a pic because we were impressed by your armada in tow going so far up lake!

Thank you, We love hearing about all these Yachtzee sightings! Our 44 yr old Kayot still gets the job done, albeit at 6 mph. Out before sunrise gets us from Wahweap to Escalante by sundown on a little over 30 gal of gas.

Hope you found a good camp in Oak and look forward to your report.

Hope you have a great trip. We're on the road now and will give a report later. Best fishing was on main channel structure or deep coves near the main channel.

Man, you must’ve been in full after-burner to make RC by sundown!

Yachtzee will be back for another 5 day rip up lake Thurs Oct 3. We’ll keep an eye out for ya SeaLegs.

Happy Trails this week, looking forward to your report.

Actually we were cruising at the standard 2400 rpm. 6 mph most of the trip. Had some some chop and head winds for awhile. After Face Canyon it was mostly glass. I was sweating it for a bit.
