did you ever rent speed boat on Lake Powell?

Would you recomend renting speed boat for half of the day? How much of Lake Powell you can see?Is it expensive?

Rented a 110 merc outboard a few years back from Bullfrog marina.It was well worth it.Take care of the paper work the night before and get a early morning start.Boats had to be back by 5PM.
The Lake is well marked with numbered bouys making navigation a breeze.Depends on how fast you want to go as to how much of the lake and attractions you can see.At full bore you can burn a lot of gas.50 gallons of gas and 2 cycle oil should last the whole day at fishing speeds.At wide open, maybe two hours.
