That sounds sweet. Never really thought about getting one. But you got me thinking about it now.

We anchored out by these cliffs today. The water was 67' deep and 88° on the surface. A great day on the lake!

On Memorial Day weekend the water was 74° and I got in. It was... refreshing, as long as the sun was out. I guess it's all about what you're acclimated to. Thursday afternoon when we got here the water temp was too warm unless you find a current.
Driller what does the water temp get up to on Travis?
Here is a shot of one of the big cliffs on our lake. I'm guessing it's plus or minus 100'. You can see a house up in the right corner. I bet it's a great view!

Yowza! Rappelling down to beach would be fun but back up not so much! Looks fantastic!

Marlin tournament ends here tonight (4 days). Should be fun but weather in the Gulf is not great and heard few catches so far. None at early weigh in last night after 1 437lb earlier.

Guess it is a relative thing. When it's 102 air temp, 86 seems great.

It's funny to see the difference in climate from one end of the membership to the other. You guys up north are having what to us here in the south is spring weather. We'll be suffering now until September when it finally starts to cool down.

It's 81 right now. Kind of been hanging around that for awhile. The bad part is the rain. Southern Wisconsin is flooding and that's going into northern Illinois as the chain there is a mess right now with boats floating on there lifts and boats sinking. Dry dock marinas look like they are in the water.

Was at Laurel Lake in southeast Ky. Tuesday through Thursday. Air temp was 95 and water temp was 82. Was refreshing but even sitting under the Bimini was too hot.

Do you guys pull your carpet out when it's that hot. I'm thinking mid to high 80's that carpet gets hot sitting in one spot in the sun.

Re: Ok let's get July going. Pictures guys :-) This includes John :-)
No. I don't. Keep the Bimini up though. That shades a large portion of the boat. The bow gets hot though. Seats get hotter than the carpet.
Treat the seats with UV protection after every trip out. Quick spray and wipe down. Just in case any sunscreen got on them and to help with the sun. My boat has been down in this heat for 7 years and shows no sign of fading.
