This one-of-a-kind learning experience combines hands-on instruction with a licensed captain and insider tips for exploring Lake Powell’s hidden canyons and secluded beaches. The fun begins at check-in on Friday evening.  Immediately after, enjoy dinner at Lake Powell Resort’s newly-redecorated Rainbow Room or Defiance House Lodge’s Anasazi Restaurant. On Saturday morning, participants will kick off the weekend with a six-hour training course on one of Lake Powell Resorts & Marinas’ premier houseboats.
