What’s Going on Here?

[DuttonDave]

In front of our place at the Islander, and I see this boat going back-and-forth across the lake?

 

[monkeyswrench]

Mapping the bottom? Or is someone missing?

 

[DLC]

Nothing to see ! Look away!

The Gubment is NOT taking any surveys.

 

[was thatguy]

Hide the shit immediately! Lol

 

[C_J_J_C]

Damn..... Google maps street view is getting serious.

 

[F.U.IRS]

Over here in front of The Landing this morning too.

 

[t&y]

Well, it kinda looks like a SURVEY of some sort.

 

[Ziggy]

Doubtful they are looking for a person with a Survey sign.
.
Would be interesting to know what they're checking for?
They really ought to put a Ferry crossing back into service.

 

[riverroyal]

Im guessing its a survey. Probably asking how many people buy glow sticks

Hydrographic Survey . Mapping the surface under water.

Your tax dollars at work. They are spending a couple million to check and see if the bottom has changed any since the last time they surveyed

Maybe depth and sediment build up have changed since they keep running the water high?
Global warming effecting the spawning grounds of the piranha?

 

[Justfishing]

It could be for something like garmin maps or like others have said it could be the government checking to see things like sedimentation, water storage capacity.

 

[Your ad here]

Maybe they got a tip of where there may be a large amount of 10mm sockets?

Looking for Biden voters

 

[mjc]

they are looking for all the guns lost in the lake.

 

[DRYHEAT]

Maybe they’re doing a survey on Biden‘s job approval.

 

[Groper]

Maybe they’re doing a survey on Biden‘s job approval.

Hahah this makes the most sense polling the Bass, Bluegill & Catfish are the Crawfish allowed to vote ? or not because their transients

 

[Ace in the Hole]

Maybe they’re doing a survey on Biden‘s job approval.

They are currently surveying his stellar record on fuel costs....

 

[stephenkatsea]

Survey Vessel. Displaying amber lights instead of the typical Restricted in Ability to Maneuver day shapes. Conducting bottom survey??

 

[WhatExit?]

 

[Lunatic Fringe]

It's a direct result of dropping water levels and the decades long drought.

Developers are surveying the location of the condo's they'll be building in 2 more years.

Global Warming and all, ya know.

 

[DILLIGAF]

Lol. I remember that. She seems like she would be fun to party with. Dumb as shit but not the point.

Hydrographic Survey - likely using forward and side scanning sonar. Saw it posted, they want traffic to pass astern of them. Often they're trying to hold a particular course line when underway conducting a survey. Back in the day, they never wanted traffic to pass astern of them, because they were often pulling a submerged towed array. Apparently these guys aren't. Typically they're standing by on Ch16 VHF. But, not many Havasu boats have a VHF Marine Radio. We don't.

Of maybe firearms from all those terrible boating accidents, oh the Humanity!!
