Default best place to watch the shootout?

seeing if there is something i might be over looking.

we usually rent a toon but think we might pass on that this year. Have also done the cruise ship parked at the finish line....any other idea's i am not thinking of?

buddies boat we were going on sold last week so not sure what to di now for the actual event.

This might sound dumb, but if you don't have access to a boat. Most of the bars have a live feed on TV. Bob Teague is one of the commentators and it's very interesting to hear the power, make, size of boats running the mph.

There is no way I would be on a pontoon in the Ozarks Shootout weekend. Far to rough.

Lake TV live stream. The same three commercials get old but some good commentary I agree.

thought about just hanging at captain Rons.

we dont want to do the cruise ship....that was too packed and not worth the cost plus beer at the cash bar.

sucks his boat sold just before the shootout.....for us, not him. i am sure he is happy lol

Nate, I'd personally go to Ron's and hang if I couldn't get out on the course. If that's too far to travel, pick your favorite watering hole and enjoy on TV.
