After being at the lake this past weekend I think there are a few places on the lake that need hazard buoys that arent there. Up around the Real Island area I was towing a skiier and he fell so I turned around to pick him up. Well he was at the least 30 yards away from the shore so I felt comfortable pulling him up again. After he got up out of the water he had only been up on his ski for about 5 seconds when he hit a ROCK under water. It is a wonder that I didn't hit it with my boat. However there was no marker or any indication of an underwater hazard there. I was trying to think of a way to go back myself and place a hazard of some sort there myself but this happened on our last run before we left for the weekend. My friend is ok but we are both lucky that he only hit the rock with his ski instead of falling before he got out of the water and hitting the rock with his body. Any suggestions as to how to mark that rock myself? Be careful out there.
