The skies cleared just in time for Harbor Hop weekend at Lake of the Ozarks.

Hundreds of boaters cruised the waters, enjoying the sunshine and hopping from one Lakefront establishment to the next as they assembled their 7-card poker hand in the event that kicks off the official boating season at the Lake.

The water was a bit muddy thanks to flooding from the previous week, but Bagnell Dam operators had controlled the Lake level in anticipation of the event, and traffic at the Lake—both on and off the water—was buzzing.

The photos below are of cruisers and bowriders, on Saturday, May 6, 2017.
