Boats? Ha Ha Ha!!! You mean home made rafts made out of inner tubes, plywood (stolen from the Metro deck), and sequins. One year I saw a guy floating by while standing up in a Port-A-Potty.
You can buy a cheap inflatible raft easily once you get there.
Oh! so I guess it's not as formal as the Lake Travis stuff in Austin, where you have speedboats and waverunners and such. I guess I can find a rubber raft somewhere.
Johnny, think of River Raft as a pride parade on water. I highly doubt that you will see speed boats on the Hooch. And don't drink the water, and don't let anyone squirt you in the mouth. (with a water gun that is.)
