Resident2B - when we used to stay open in the winter months, Waldo and I often heard the scream of snowmobiles as they flew along the channel. That sound makes your hair stand on end, and your stomach tighten, as you wait to hear it either continue on, or simply stop. Many conversations with the local PD, State Police, Fish and Game, and Fire Department all revealed the same frustration as you and I and others feel right now. I do not envy your position so close to the channel right now! I prefer being far enough away that I can't hear-and-fear.
