FNG13 - I am not sure you are correct on that. I could have called 911 or some other emergency call, but regular phone numbers I haven't been able to make. I could have called the police, but my ego prevented me from doing that.

Craigpo - Due to my ignorance, I am finding it difficult to fathom ye olde schoole celestial navigation.

There is a system on the lake, in the main channel, towards the shore every mile there is a number, red on one side and green on the other to help with people from getting lost.... Proper prior planning yet again.

I am thankful that it was a beautiful day giving me a sunburn, rather than a cold stormy one placing me in a survival situation.
I have to say that I've never navigated anything nearly that complicated! I'm used to open ocean, so I could use some tips on water nav too, it seems.
