ice rescue near Kingston
« on: Feb 15, 2018, 07:02 PM »
FYI, this was posted on the Quinte Site. I thought it would be useful to add it here:

Giant crack opened up in front of Finkle boat launch this afternoon leaving several guys stranded. Fire and rescue were on site and fisherman appeared safe but unable to get back. This crack ran from Millhaven ferry all the way west to cement plant. Definitely not safe!!
Hope they all made it home okay!

There isn't a fish in the lake worth the risk.

Stay safe.

From what I've been told by a guy that lives on the island that crack was there, then the wind shifted with the tugs & ferry running it caused it to move out from shore.
I heard they all got rescued. There also a big crack from the island. Was there on Tuesday 13" of ice but some big cracks towards the gap. It's big water with lots of current.
