According to local officials, there were 65,000 to 70,000 fans and over 7,000 boats for the concert, breaking all previous attendance records and nearly doubling last years record setting event. Boats started arriving on MONDAY (7/5) for prime positioning for the concert. The event was hosted by SEA RAY BOATS and local dealer SAIL & SKI CENTER. PAISLEY played the two-hour concert on a stage at waters edge, for fans that could only access the show by boat and some got closer to the stage with inner-tubes, blow-up boats, surf boards and other flotation devices. With a 100-foot thrust perched on floats, PAISLEY was able to walk out into the midst of thousands of fans on water.
AquaPalooza is a multi-location boating festival, sponsored by Sea Ray boats. It is promoted as "The World's Largest Boat Party" and claims to attract over 12,000 boats to 100 locations mostly around the United States, but also in several international locations.
Paddle boards were seen at AquaPalooza a lot because of SUP ATX and the fact that there was a ton of drinking going on and I am sure not everyone got out of the water to use the bathroom when they needed to go. Being on top of a SUP would be less toxic for sure.
I have to think that one of the reasons that SUP (Standup Paddle Boarding) is growing so fast is that you can be mobile on top of the water in almost any situation. If you are looking to paddle around or you are looking to go to extremes by surfing or getting pulled behind a boat and everything in between. As long as you take a couple of lessons you can be up and playing around in less than an hour.
