Buoys, bridges, no-wake
Great Sacandaga is a reservoir. Levels move, stumps come and go, and the shoreline in October is not the shoreline in July. NYS rule: no vessel over 5 mph within 100 feet of shore. Stay out of marked swim areas. PWC may not run between sunset and sunrise.

Full rules and who to call: Lake safety. We don’t invent buoys — if a mark is missing, tell us.
Know the water before you launch it.
This map only works if it stays accurate — gas that ran out, a marina that closed, a launch that’s now private. Tell us what’s changed.
