A couple of units heading over to Lock Lane, which is off a Lockshore.

You're trying to confirm that boat, like out in the middle? Not quite on the bank.
05:47
It might be, I'm not sure if it drifted out from the shore or what, but I don't believe it's in the middle of the lake. I think it might be just off the shore a little ways.

Okay.
