Dats a flare gun and its part of any decent life boat kit. But that doesnt look like a lifeboat.

Also, they're clearly on a lake

Not the person you asked, but The Babysitter's Club books take place in the US, and that's what several of our lakes look like. Not a heck of a lot of oceanfront coast that has no beach, no transitional wetlands/grasslands, and just immediate mountains. There are several lakes in the US that fit that description.

Oh okay. I guess in the US, apart from Alaska, there wouldnt be cold enough areas at sea level to get this scenery. I was thinking Norway or something.

Are fjord waters calm like that?

[–] CrazyLikeGollum@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

If you find the right spot they can be, just probably not anywhere that close to shore.

Though if you were dressed like that in a little rubber raft on any part of Alaska's coast you'd probably be hypothermic or on your way to it. The ocean's may be warming but the water is still damn cold even in the middle of summer.

That's a recreational rubber craft, they don't come with any kits.

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 2 points 15 hours ago

There doesn't seem to be space there for any kind of kit either.
