That is my guess. Long term alcoholics will often develop Bleeding Esophageal Varices which can spontaneous rupture. I've seen it once, the guy vomited several liters of blood in a manner of minutes. Even after working in healthcare for years, it was horrifying.

Tom Scott had a video about a certain canal being electrified to stop an invasive carp species from getting into the Great Lakes.
Maybe they should electrify that river too with a stronger current to zap any would-be shovellers

Man, I don't know about this one.... it looks like the part of the river that runs behind that sandbar is less than half a mile long and his digging just cut out the last 1,300 or so feet of it, and he did it not just for the hell of it but because the park service stopped dredging it so it was silting up and trapping boats and hampering rescue efforts

Answers probably in the middle. Channeling through the dune like that is going to be a short lived inlet without extra dredging but not before turbulenting up the currents and eroding the neighboring beach and dune. A worst of all worlds approach compared to taking over the dredging of the current channel or doing a hydrologic study to identify a longer living channel that could be canaled out in case there is a reason I'm missing that someone just can't launch a dinghy from the swimming beach to rescue kayakers.

In the end the dudes wanting their boat launch to work will probably get what they want as the area is probably at the top of the stack for an engineer to mitigate dune damage and that probably involves a clean boatable channel but I won't fault them for just closing it off to boats out of spite.

Yeah it was far from a great idea on his part but it does sound like the locals had been getting pissed off for a while, and as someone with her own resentments of the National Park Service for local stuff*, I kinda get it

* they're responsible for a lot of small parks here in DC and hardly ever bother to clear the snow and ice in the winter from the sometimes quite lengthy sidewalks they're responsible for, effectively loving up whole neighborhoods for days at a time, so I have a longstanding grudge

I'm amazed you can have a river like that. It seems like the first good storm it'd wash away the river bank, heck I'm surprised that the river just doesn't "leak" through the sand into the lake.

Wait till you hear what's inside sandbags and other soil levees.

Beaches and dunes are generally in a spot where the prevailing currents dump sand and sediment instead of erode. You need sand and prevailing currents and lake Michigan is kind of special for this out of the Great Lakes. But basically left alone the river and the lake will replenish the dune untill it reaches a point that it changes the currents that it doesn't want to drop it off right there.
