rental boats, Wendy Gunn told me they took a Lowe boat to this guy and told them what they wanted, they are built like a bomb, I ask about the motors, said they had 3 starters to go out when they were brand new, other than that change oil every 100 hours, no problems in 3+ years, and they are taken out daily by people that don't know nothing about boats.

Did ya'll rent a boat, how was the fishing?
-
Neither
This was a Sams trip, didn't take a rod on purpose. Showed him the major sights.
Stayed @ Lee's Ferry on purpose, had a room booked for months. Wanted to scope the area out.
Boats are $200 a day, have to have a vehicle with hitch. Fushing was good from all I talked to.
Serious fishing trip is booked for 10 days in August. Heading out to sample Tom Greys waters :)
