Reading the Water in Northern Michigan 🌊🚤

You know how to drive, but do you know how to read our local waters? Northern Michigan’s crystal-clear bays and lakes are stunning, but the colors also tell a story about depth.

🩵 Bright Turquoise / Light Blue: Very shallow water or a sandbar! Trim up your motor and watch your depth finder closely.
💙 Deep Blue / Dark Green: Deep, open water. Safe for cruising and watersports.
🪸 Dark Patches in Clear Water: Drop-offs, w**d beds, or rocky bottoms. Keep an eye out and avoid high speeds over these spots.

Know before you go! Drop any navigation questions in the comments, or ask our Aussie crew before you hit the water! ⚓
