Who knew that the lakes in AZ were going to be so fabulous. We lived in the land of 10,000 lakes for years and were not sure how boating would be out in AZ---but I have to tell you we enjoyed it so much. For the most part the lakes are big enough that you can find your own little piece of paradise if you just want to anchor the boat---and relax---read a book--get a tan---jump off the side and float on a tube. It is an easy way to spend a whole day.....loved it...
