New rules in place for lake shootout

Revised navigational restrictions will be put into place during the Lake of the Ozarks Shootout regatta event in August.

The event includes the main channel from the 31.5-mile mark to the 36-mile mark. Due to the number of spectator vessels expected at the event, the no-wake restriction Aug. 26 will be extended from 2-5:30 p.m. and will include the main channel from the 31.5-mile mark downstream to approximately the 24-mile mark. 

The extended no-wake area is in addition to the no-wake restriction implemented for the event itself. The no-wake area for Aug. 27 will remain from the 31.5-mile mark to the 36-mile mark in the main channel.

A map of the area, which designates the no-wake restricted areas, has been posted to the Water Patrol Division website, mshp.dps.missouri.gov/MSHPWeb/WaterPatrol/index.html.
