What's amazing is how well a properly equipped snowmobile can do on the water . . . until it loses speed. Every fall here they do grass drags and a water cross as a warm up to winter snowmobiling. One guy lost power in the middle of the pond. They tied a rope on and dragged it out, took out the plugs and turned it over a few times, put the plugs back in and fired it back up.

BTW, the smart move is to tie a buoy to your sled with a line longer than the deepest water you're crossing, just in case.
