I had a lady ( could've used another term) tell me that I was on her private beach once. This was while I was perched on a rock 20 ft into the water. I said that she was misinformed (I was nice).
I explained the high water mark as being the end of her property line.I believe in my area the law goes one step more. Someone mentioned to me that it also includes the width of a horse and cart to that distance.This was due to the fact that farmers used the area beaches to gather straw years ago. Whether or not it's true I'm buying into that for my next confrontation.
