Fortunately, water depth is not an issue. I don't want to even think about the red tape involved in a project like that.

We also have lots of large rocks leftover from the blasting that was done to build the original house back in the sixties. The original owners actually tried to build a breakwater out of them on their own but the ice has done quite a number on that structure over the years.
