A friend who lives in South Lake Tahoe was at the Beacon the other day for dinner during the start of this latest storm. Two rental ski boats were moored just off shore. He captured a couple pictures of the "surf" coming in on the boats.

They both sank.

Glad it's not my boat.. The fines alone for cleanup might be more than the boats cost.

Here is an article about a harrowing sailboat ride during the storm:

I think other than the Great Lakes, we have the only fresh water Coast Guard station.
