Ok, so we all like Lake Pleasant for a couple reasons:
1) Humbug Cove
2) Lake Pleasant is closer than Havasu.
But what if there were two party coves?
For most of those new to Lake Pleasant, Humbug Cove was originally a cove with no speed limit. It is sheltered from wind chop, meaning it was a great place to ski, and make a few high speed passes. Those who knew Humbug in the beginning remember hanging out watching high speed passes, and waterskier's showing off.
Humbug became too crowded in 2000, and the narrow long cove, became a danger to boats and skiers (there were a lot of accidents in that area). The "no wake" bouy's came out. It happen in Lake Havasu and it has happen to Humbug. For those who have experienced the "Copper Canyon transition to the Sandbar" in Lake Havasu migration, once a spot becomes popular, all the idiots began to show up, and conflicts happen.
Attached is a map of Lake Pleasant. We need to pick a new place. You can easily print the pdf format attached.

Did you make it Saturday night? We were at the bar for an hour or so, but no live band, so we headed out for a Full Moon cruise.

That might be a nice break every once and a while.
