Have you swam any OW where you could see the bottom? Where was it and how deep was it? What was down there? See anything interesting?
Massively interesting stuff!
In lakes, pondweed, fishies, ledges, underwater springs... In Lake Michigan off Chicago there are many structures left over from two world fairs that nobody removed. Old pilings and walls that were presumed to be sufficiently underwater forever. With very low water levels (some sandy beaches have appeared that used to be only sandy bottom under 4-6 feet of water), one can easily run into these structures.
