I am a newbie boater and avoided the Graveyard just that way until a friend with many years of experience took me through it on his boat. It's not bad at all if the lake is on the calm side, and as Phantom said, much easier if there's no other traffic. It's quite clearly marked if you know what you're looking for.

We spend a fair amount of time at Nineteen Mile Bay, maybe we will run into you.
