Here are our top 5 cities to float a boat:<\/p>\n<p><b>1. Seattle, Washington:<\/b> Seattle is an ideal boating lifestyle (pictured). From the San Juan Islands&nbsp;in the north to Olympia in the south boaters are surrounded by scenic beauty. On clear&nbsp;days watch for the Olympic and Cascade Mountains framing the waterlines and if you&#8217;re&nbsp;lucky Mount Rainier will show it&#8217;s snow-capped ridges. Boaters also flock to Lake Union&nbsp;and Lake Washington for quick day trips around the area.<br \/>Where to rent a boat: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.northwestboatrentals.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Northwest Boat Rentals<\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>2. San Diego, California:<\/b> Mission Bay is known for floating boats and floating cookouts.&nbsp;Locals cruise out to Catalina Island for a day of bike riding. As you boat keep an eye&nbsp;out for Coronado Island and then look back and view the San Diego skyline.<br \/>Where to rent a boat: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.missionbaysportcenter.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Mission Bay Sport Center<\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>3. Austin, Texas:<\/b> Eighty-five miles northwest of Austin is known as the Highland Lakes&nbsp;area of Texas. The area features six lakes that are perfect for boating and fishing. The&nbsp;two most popular lakes are Lake Austin (for skiing and wakeboarding) and Lake Travis (for&nbsp;big boats).
