you may see me there this summer. Canada has muffler law within 5 miles of shore. But all the lakes are max 2 miles across.

At this rate, with more rain this week, I'd have to say mid June earliest. Probably later.

I've seen stuff floating out there that would cause some very real harm

A tree, complete with roots, floated by our place. It was conservatively 40 feet

Has anyone heard what Breakwaters may do? They've been underwater for nearly a month now.
