Too bad Lake Powell is so low right now. I suggest limiting your tour
to lower Lake Powell, Wahweap to Rainbow Bridge. Fuel is available at
Dangling Rope Marina. Make yor headquarters the Wahweap Lodge. Two
days should give you time to see many of the canyons and beautiful
vistas. Get a Stan Jones map. http://www.az.net/stanjones/ So you'll
know hich canyons to see.

Unfortunately you now have to go up the "channel" to get betond
Wahweap Bay. This adds to each day trip. I hope you are going when
it is warm. A dip in the lake is very refreshing in the summer.

Good luck. Have fun.

Hey folks,

My wife and I are looking to spend our 5 year anniversary on a rental
boat (power) at Lake Powell, but we only have 2 days of water time.
Assuming we start at the Wahweap marina and that we are probably
having to spend our evenings shorebound at a resort (versus on the
lake,) what kind of recommendations do you folks have for sightseeing
the beautiful surroundings within the range we have (say, out at 8:00
a.m. and back by dark or at another resort area other than Wahweap)
and given a small powerboat with a top speed of 35mph (minus plenty of
quiet time taking it all in)??

We will probably be renting an open bow 17-20 foot powerboat with a
crusing range of about 100-120 miles.

Thanks in advance for your help!
