OK, I'll "bite". OP, welcome to the Villages version of Disney World Imagineering. Sit down, take a deep breath, and listen carefully: The dock and sunken boat are FAKE! Actually, so is Lake Sumter as it's man made.

I think lake Sumter was lowlands named Cherry lake, before the bulldozers when to work on it many years ago? :shrug:

The only thing that happened was the ships wheel was impaled in me crouch. Well, when I staggered over to City Fire for another pint of rum, one of the wenches at the outdoor bar asked "that must hurt!" "Arrrggghhh" I replied, "It's driving me nuts!":22yikes:

Gators are a problem but it's the Sharks hiding in the wreck that scare me.

Oh, yes indeed.. I often lay awake on those chilly heavy fog laden days and nights, listening to the forlorn LSL lighthouse fog horn..So reassuring, lonely, yet mysterious deep throated soundings, far off in the distance..Warning to those of the dangerous perils, of the treacherous Lake Sumter crossings...
