We're enjoying three days of boating on Lake Shasta in California - tomorrow is likely the last boating day of the season though.
This is actually a great time of year for boating. The lake has been flat due to very light winds, and hardly any other boats to make wakes. Air temperatures have been in the 80s mid-day. It's been perfect.
The only downside is we sucked up the tow tube rope today which terminated boating about an hour early. I pulled the pump and we're all ready for one more day of boating.
Shasta Lake with Mount Shasta in the background with fresh snow from last weekend's first precipitation of our rainy season.
Me driving with my little son in the bow today.
This is what was still left on the port pump after we spent about 1/2 hour cutting away with a knife through the clean out port plus diving under the boat. It took less than 1/2 hour to pull the pump, clean it up, and reinstall it. Ready for tomorrow now.
