Recent YouTube video of LDV showed same water level I recall:

From a few months ago: 




Everyone should watch the first few minutes of this video at least 

that's a good one! my hobie has never been through inspection...has  lot of nooks and cranny's....is it best to just leave a $20 in the hatch? lol

I’m ready. Let’s do this! 

They really are the most through inspection process at the East and South Bay lakes.  Truth be told it's not that hard to clean your kayak, even if it's been sitting for a long time.  This weekend after I'm done kayaking I'll spray the outside down really good, and take a brush to any dirt/sand I see and rinse again.  Wipe down any accumulated water you can find inside the hull laying on a flat surface.  Then just leave your hatches open during the day, close them at night with a few towels or blankets inside.  Open up again the next day and repeat again if necessary. With the warmer weather it should only take a day or two.  If you store your kayak upside down, just leave the hatches open and a few days should be dry.

They keep the lake full year round, the water level varies about 10' from what I read.

They may want to charge the inspection fee for each water craft.....including inflatables.

I'm still bringing bagels, cream cheese and lox to share and something to grill.

Let's cook up some of that skirt steak on Friday with the fish tacos!

Speaking of which - who all is going to be there Friday night and plans on eating fish tacos?

I need to know how much fish to bring.
