Avoiding the Grind: How to Navigate Bruce Peninsula Shoals

Written By David Harvey

Every boater in Owen Sound and Wiarton knows that the most beautiful views often hide the most dangerous rocks. Understanding the local hydrography is the difference between a great weekend and an emergency haul-out.

Why Local Knowledge Matters: The water levels around the Bruce Peninsula can fluctuate wildly. A rock that was safely submerged last month could be a propeller-buster today. If you do find yourself on the wrong side of a "V-pattern" in the water, Peninsula Boat Repairs is here to get you back on the lake.
