They Announced aquapalooza will be at Lake Travis - Austin, Texas this year. I've never been but, they're making a big deal about it. From what ya'll are saying about it, I may just leave the big boat at home and take the jet skis. Any suggestions for a first time Aquaplooza-er?

Aquapalooza events are held all over the country, with one main or signature event, wich is supposed to have big stars performing. Last years with Allen Jackson was on CMT. It looked like the boats were purposely tied up in rows with plenty of spacing, "organized". Our Aquapalooza is drop anchor and tie up were ever you want, "un-organized".
Check with the Lake Travis area Sea Ray dealer to see if they have a plan for rafting up.

Local Sea Ray dealer held an Aquapolooza here in the Richmond, Va area, two years ago. It was very organized and planned out. We heard nothing but good comments all day.

I'm done with Aquapalooza. The first year was fun, now it's uncontrolled drunk fest.
I got some of the damage last year. Our 3 boat raft up was going fine, had a good stom plan in effect until........ The other 500 boats started dragging anchor.
If they do it this year we should pick a spot somewhere else on the river and make our own party.

Aquapalooza is a Sea Ray sponsored event to say thank you to Sea Ray customers and maybe to get someone to buy a new or used Sea Ray boat, Sea Ray does not make a dime when guys fist fight on the dock, arrive in a conoe, nor does Tim make a penny when 1,000 boats arrive with a 24 pack's of beer only to use his bathroom. The idea to have this event at National Harbor is more about selling boats and thanking the guys with the 42'+ Sea Ray's, than making an opportunity for another redneck like myself to get drunk and suggest chicks show there tiiiiits. Organization cost money and the money is not availible if no one buys Sea Ray boats........
