Biodegradable Body Soap


Some of you at the houseboat meeting ask about a biodegradable body soap. This is what I found 2 summers ago at Walmart. It's called Alpine Xtreme hydrating face and body wash. I checked online and it states that Walmart still carries this. This bottle is 28 oz and it's 1/2 full after 2 trips to Powell with about 15-20 people on each trip.
Shampoo: it's easy to find shampoo's that are biodegradable. Suave makes some as well as many other companies. Conditioner is another story all together. I finally found Aussi products in the purple bottle. They are biodegradable.
I haven't found any shaving creams that are biodegradable so we just use conditioner.
Just remember that there is a hefty fine if you are found to have any products on the boat that are NON-biodegradable. Help everyone out and share your ideas and products you find that you like to use at Lake Powell.

2011 Moki Mansion Meeting

We had a very nice turn out for our year end meeting (2010). We discussed a lot of important things and I think we accomplished quite a bit in the meeting. Thanks to everyone for their willingness to help make 2011 and the future of the Moki a success and something we can be proud of.
Our officers for 2011 were elected and the decision was unanimous.
President - Tim Holden
President Elect - Wayne Sexton
Secretary - Steve Karren
Treasurer - Myrna Richens

She' on dry land!

For those who might be following this blog - Wayne and Russ Lund drove to Lake Powell today and they have brought the Moki out of the water to dry dock to begin the upkeep process. The pontoons will be power washed and repainted or coated (whatever the proper term is). Once everything is completed we can have the insurance company come and inspect. Having the boat out by early February should ensure it's ready for spring. The engines started great!

Moki Mansion 2010

Wayne and I wanted to start a Moki Mansion blog so that all of the shareholders could have a central place to chat about their Lake Powell trips and to share ideas and suggestions.
I'll go ahead and get things started and hopefully you will all jump on board and help make this a useful site for everyone.

Our Annual Meeting will be held on Saturday February 12th at our home. For those who live out of state, I am working on getting a "poly-com" that would allow you to call and listen to the meeting via speaker phone.
There is much to be accomplished at this year's meeting. We will need to elect a President, Vice, Secretary and Treasurer. C. Deubler has withdrawn his appointment at President for 2011 due to health issues. This leaves us with a lot to do in order to keep the Moki ready for our upcoming season.
