Boat Lift Goes into the Lake

Not any different than a car going through the ice. They are liable for fines as well.

You have 72 hours to remove vehicles from the lake before any fines are levied.

Been there, done that, got the wet T-shirt to prove it!

However, Marine Patrol will inform you to immediately hire someone to begin the search and recovery and DES will determine when and if fines are levied depending on how hard you are trying to find the sunken vessel. DES can be very understanding if they see a true effort to recover.

Was the Forklift made by GMC? (aka Jimmy)

I wonder if marine patrol will ticket them for an unregistered vessel in the lake and not having the proper floatation devices on board....😱

Glad he is ok...
