Was there last month and here is what I came across . If you are launching before noon watch the water level as it can be deceiving . The current in this public launch area will not be too bad but as more gates open at the dam the stronger the current gets  stronger . It will be pretty strong at the end of the day and make for a challenge when you go to load your float . I had to keep the bow pointed up river and punch it to straighten out.  When you first launch , watch out for sea doo  and water taxi traffic as there will be coming from both directions . I myself like to go up to the dam and cruise back down past the casinos about 1/2 throttle . Once you get down by the Harris hotel there is a no wake zone about 100 yards long cruise through that and get ready” it ends right as you approach another public launch area where sea doo rental company’s dump off the rentals for customer use. This place is like the Wild West and turns into a shit show” be very careful in this area, I got hit on the bow by a seadoo and it cost me 5-6k to get repaired . Keep your head on a swivel in this area . Once you get past this area about 1/2 mile or so the ride should be cool “ wear polarized sunglasses as they help pick out possible low spots and enjoy” cruse about 1/2 throttle until you are comfortable with the surroundings . Cruise down until you get to the big over head gas pipe and come up on the veterans memorial just to the left of that cove there’s a cool bar named Coveu” you can dock there and have lunch and watch the game and relax.  Once your done you can blast back up river since your comfortable with the terrain. I hope this helps , enjoy
