Be Prepared
While coming into the mainland from Bear Island, we saw a small (about 15') boat approaching well ahead of us from our port. We held our course as it was apparent that this small craft would be well beyond our path of travel. It stopped suddenly in our course, We slowed and altered our course well astern on the stopped boat. No near miss or anything like that. The boat had several young "captains" enjoying a morning outing. The outboard motor was no more than 25 HP thus all was legal. So, caution, you may encounter a variety of situations as you cruise on our beautiful lake. 🐻
