OPP say about 500 boats were in the waters of Lake Erie on Sunday as part of an annual boat party.
On the second Sunday of every July, thousands typically gather at Pottahawk Island for the annual “Pottahawk Pissup.”
OPP says on busy Pottahawk weekends, up to 2,000 vessels and 10,000 people will attend.
Acting Sgt. Ed Sanchuk says around 3,000 people attended Pottahawk on Sunday.
“I did speak to a few boating enthusiasts that indicated they were not going to be attending Pottahawk because of the wind,” he said on Sunday afternoon
Sanchuk says no serious injuries have been reported, and that police have not handed out any tickets or fines.
Officers in uniform and plain clothes were stationed at marinas to ensure public safety both on and off the water.
OPP say that boaters need a sober operator, should not pick up strangers and must have all safety equipment on board.
