How is Lake Mead for smaller Jet's?  I have an 18' foot and am looking for something different than in between Blythe and Parker.  Not really big on the constant changing water level.
Does it get rough out there, like Havasu and would you take a smaller boat than yours out there?  Thanks for the insight!   ???

Didn't you get the memo?  Someone pulled the drain plug at the bottom of Mead and until it is returned they are draining it and no going to refill it until that person is caught.   ;D
