Wrong. “Alongside”, in this context, is defined. The vessel is still sitting on water if moored or alongside. If sat on a beach, it cannot be underway, moored or alongside.

OK/OK-060 comes to mind, and it’s a 10 pointer!
Unfortunately the lake is artificial and part of a hydroelectric power station; I doubt you can take a boat on it!

Does this mean it has to be a VLF activation to count?

You could try. I suppose you could use an ex military submarine towed/surface antenna?

Not sure that would go down well with serving or ex submariners as they always refer to submarines as boats - not subs. - So BOTA is OK.

There is just one OTA missing from that scenerio Matt. It doesn’t have a much needed lighthouse on the island!!
Then one could do SOTA, POTA, LOTA, LOTA & IOTA!! Could you take your kayak to add a BOTA?
Maybe two spare batteries needed?
Oh. I see a local has activated the summit.

Same seems to be the case for DM/TH-012.

A kayak is definitely NOT a boat, nor is it a canoe, although some canoeists do refer to their canoe as a boat. - some of the kayak & Canoe fraternity get upset if you confuse the two types of watercraft. Ao we could have KOTA for the Kayakers and COTA for canoeists.
This is a canoe - (me on the Thelon River in the far northern reaches of Canada).
