P&S Lake Mead, NV Get Together?

I know there is a forum dedicated to meet-ups, but I may organize one for P&Sers only.
Was thinking of renting a houseboat on Lake Mead for 3 or 4 days. Price would be about $350-$500 per person depending on the number of days, the specific boat and the season. It is somewhat cheaper in the off-season (before May 20). Boats are designed for 6, 8 10, and 12 occupants.
The daytime air temp is about 86F in May and about 91F in June. Nighttime temps are in the low 70s. More importantly the water temp is about 68F in May and about 73F in June.
This price is for the houseboat only and would NOT include food, drink, gas, drugs, bait, park fees, transportation (about 45 miles from the airport) - or bail.
If we did it, everyone should plan one night at a hotel (around $50 midweek at a so-so hotel, more on the weekend) and we could all rent a van/limo and go shopping in the morning for food, alcohol and supplies and drive over as a group. Those that wanted to could stay on and party in town after the lake trip. Fishermen would need to buy a short-term license and bring or rent fishing gear.
Jet skis are available at the marina and would be extra.
Absolutely no one under 21. If you reserve a space and do not have a valid ID or are underage, you will lose your deposit. No exceptions! And no - I will not provide nor sell drugs to anyone. You must smuggle your own, do without, find a local hookup or mail to yourself here.
There is very little light pollution so the skies are very dark and star-filled. The scenery is awesome and the fishing is great. The houseboat has TV, stereo, BBQ, frig, ice-maker, microwave and all amenities.
If we decide to do this, a nonrefundable houseboat deposit of 20-25% would be required a month or more in advance.
Interpersonal grudges, fighting, etc. will not be tolerated. This is for a good time only.
Give me your thoughts/feedback.

I'm up for coming out to play. That it's about 5,000 miles from me is no problem, but the price, it's more than what I now make/month. Maybe next time.

I definitely can not come because of money, but in the off-chance you can get enough people together, that should be quite an experience!

My body I will give to pleasures, to diversions that I’ve dreamed of, to the most daring erotic desires, to the lustful impulses of my blood, without any fear at all, for whenever I will— and I will have the will, strengthened as I’ll be with contemplation and study— at the crucial moments I’ll recover my spirit as was before: ascetic.”

I asked him because he's organizing a get together at Nevada, he has talked about being in South Lake Tahoe, and his avatar is Yosemite Sam.
...I'll ask for his street address via PM.

Why not Glen Canyon? I've done the houseboat thing there and it is truly and awesome boat ride.
At least gas is cheeper right now. It costs a ton to power those craft.

If only one person comes, I have an 11 foot inflatable kayak. When we fire up the BBQ, just be careful not to get a hot charcoal on the kevlar hull...

Sounds like an awesome gathering! Unfortunately I lack the funds at the current moment to attend, though.

Good idea! great area! I'm not interested in a pic-nic, but if it were cactus and shrooms in the desert!!. Plus; there should be no rules.

I think it's a nice idea. I'm organizing an intimate, private invitation-only Gathering foray this year which will also be non-published in the Gathering forum. Keeps out the riff-raff, ya know?
Have a great time!
