Maiden Voyage!

This winter Shane and I bought a boat with his cousin, Zach. We love boating and water skiing and have had many fun times out on the lake ever since Shane and I started dating. We have always wanted to get our own boat so when Shane and Zach came across this Ski Centurion on KSL they got pretty excited and we just couldn't pass it up. They have been really anxious to get out on the lake and run the boat ever since we got it. So a couple Saturday's ago we had the boat dewinterized and the motor all checked out. Everything looked great and so we decided the first warm day we had a chance we would take the boat out for its maiden voyage. Monday, April 28th was my B-Day and a very beautiful day so the three of us along with Shane's dad left work a little early and headed up to Pineview to go for a test drive. It's still a little early in the season to be out boating, especially this year with all the snow we have had. There was still snow on the banks and the water was super cold. We weren't really planning on actually getting out and skiing but the water was glass and the air was pretty warm so the boys just couldn't resist, although I think once they actually got in the water they had second thoughts about their decision. Since I am pregnant they didn't even pressure me to get in, but I am sure if I weren't that there would have been some peer pressure and I would have ended up in the freezing lake as well. The boat ran awesome which was exciting for all of us and the water was amazing. Shane and Zach are both great water skiers and had really good runs to start the summer off. I still think they are a little crazy for getting into that cold water but they did wear two wetsuits. We are happy with our purchase and look forward to a fun summer of boating and many years of fun memories! It was a fun way to celebrate my B-Day.

You can see there is still a lot of snow in the mountains and even on the banks


Definitely cold enough for two wetsuits!
