Honestly, I haven't really thought it out. I could use some feedback to help evolve a plan.
If Saturday, we'd have to be done in plenty of time for everyone to get ready to be at TVs at 6:00pm.
Sunday, we'd have to be done in time for out-of-towners to catch flights or start the drive home.
Also, remember that it's rather weather dependent. Very windy or raining isn't good for going out. As for swimming or floating, I'll have to see if the water's warm enough, as time gets closer. It's usually later in May, before the water's comfortable.

Another option is to have a party at/on the boat, at the marina, but not take it out. Our boat is in the very end slip on our dock, so we have a great view out over the lake, especially from the upper deck. We could accomodate more people, since we could spill out onto the dock. We have a paddle boat that people could take out for a mini-cruise. We've had several parties like that, setting up tables on the dock, and it's worked out great. And, of course, folks can come and go whenever they need to. I'll try to get a few pics that show what it's like, down there.

If he's got some free time, maybe Kenike (and Kenike Wahine) can come by some weekend before May 3, have some cocktails and something off the grill, and help me brainstorm how we ought to do this. And maybe even plan some get-togethers on the lake for later this summer.
