You need to make it a night cruise if you can. When you're in the middle of the lake, you get away from a lot of the light pollution from the city. I remember one night where the sky was especially clear, the water incredibly calm, so calm you could see Orion in the water.

GSL Slip Renters,
Now that GSL and Antelope Island have complexed we can take advantage of this. Wendy Wilson, the Naturalist for the complex is willing to come down to the GSL Marina sometime in June and put on a Star Gazing Program. Have you ever wondered about the constellations? Would you like to learn about some of the prominent planets you can see from the marina? Well this may be your chance.
I would like to see how much interest there would be in this if we did it on a Friday or Saturday night in June. If this is something you think you would like to attend please reply to this email.
Thanks
Dave
