John, Not sure of the nature of your question. There is no doubt that a dug-in boathouse requires impact to the "State-owned" part of the lake (excavating and dredging from highwater mark down to a point where natural bottom is about 4-5 feet deep. I think Acres-per-Second had many of the key points well stated in his 10/6 post. The main one being the point about runoff (#4).
Many people would love to build a cabin right up the the high-water mark, but there are good reasons for not doing so, and those reasons don't go away just because the structure is a boathouse.
