Be careful with that one. You just can't put rafts out to make people maintain distance from your property. A swim raft is supposed to be located far enough out to allow diving and swimming. If you have deep water 50 feet out from shore, that is where the raft should go. Shallow all the way to 150 feet? It goes there. Stick one out in deep water just to keep boats away? Nope. Asking for trouble.
