Where is everybody staying for this one ???We were gonna stay up near Back Bay where Brad recommended but, they wanted only $100 less for the whole weekend than the Avi, I figured for $100 more the Avi has all the amenities for things to do after we are off the water. Plus the launch will only be open to guests so, hopefully it's a little less crowded than usual.

My lady, sister and her friends arent down to rough it for the weekend so we got a couple rooms at the river lodge, probably the best one out of the lot IMO.Good thing Greg gave me a heads up on the bowl seal leaking and even gave me a new one to install. Who else is still getting ready?Got to put a handle on the passenger side for the ol lady and that’s about it… gonna be towing the boat out there for the first time with a truck ( my bro’s) got new brakes rotors and shocks on it and a quart and a half of trans fluid and new tires… so I’m kinda tempted to have the ol lady follow me in the ST just in case something happens… I towed the boat around town last weekend to see if I can trust it and even went to the lake to see how it did on the ramp launching it and did really well…

'One Hot Summer Weekend' Event
Our Annual 'One Hot Summer Weekend' event is coming up this weekend! Since the Avi is still not permitting events due to COVID protocols, we will be hanging out once again up at Back Bay which is located in Laughlin Marina just north of Big Bend State Park. Our Mothers Day event was here and was great success.
We want to remind and reiterate to everyone that the area in Laughlin Marina is a strictly enforced no wake zone. This area is a wildlife preserve and there is signs marking areas where there is no motorized boats allowed. All laws of the waterway are strictly enforced - including drinking and driving.
Event Thread on the SCJB Forum: http://www.socaljetboats.com/events/socal-jet-boats-'one-hot-summer-weekend'-august-21st-2021/
Facebook Event: https://www.facebook.com/events/521046305917583
A map of where we will be in Back Bay can be found below.
Launch Ramp Information
Big Bend State Park: Launch Fee is $25 ($20 for NV Residents). It's been stated that they have been filling up and restricting access once full so if you are using this park to launch from, I suggest you get there early. If you get there before the attendant is in the booth, please be honorable and use the envelope to drop your launch fee at the booth.
Lazy Harrys: Launch is free, but parking is VERY limited. If the water level is low, you probably wont be able to exit the channel until the water level comes up. The restaurant still remains closed at this time for renovations.
Rotary Park: Launch fee is $25, ample parking.
Avi Resort & Casino: Launch is free for hotel guests ONLY - not open to the public. Also, the beach is still roped off from parking your boat on the beach. So if you launch there, be aware there is no where to comfortably park your boat while you go park your truck. They do not allow any boats at all to enter their cove.
Riverside Casino / Laughlin Public Ramp: Launch is free, decent ramp, but you are launching into current and dealing with the PWC traffic near the casinos.
Bayshore Inn: Launch is free for hotel guests. Launches right into back bay.
***Be aware, like any section of the river, there are underwater hazards along this stretch of river. We are not responsible if you damage your boat hitting rock or sand bars, logs, etc. The water levels fluctuate on the river, so something that might be visible in the morning, might be just under the surface in the evening. If you are unfamiliar with the area, ask someone for advice or follow another experienced boater.
Water Release Schedule
Davis Dam Projected Water Release Schedule can be found here:
https://www.usbr.gov/lc/region/g4000/hourly/DavisParkerSchedules.pdf
This schedule is updated daily and only shows the next 5 days release schedule. The times are based on Mountain Standard Times and are subject to change at any time. Releases listed on the schedules are only estimates and can vary from the values listed. Boaters should exercise caution while navigating along the river.
