Not a ton of info on this one but I think from the NamUs pages alone, with no other sources of information, Glenn and Jeffrey are most likely at the bottom of Schoodic Lake somewhere. I think it's quite odd that two men in their early 30s would both drown in Schoodic Lake but not completely out of the ordinary. If you're unfamiliar, it's a decent size lake but not huge and someone in fairly good shape could probably swim across. But, accidents happen. Perhaps one or both of the men got hurt and were struggling for shore. Without speculating too much, I think the most realistic answer is that they drowned in Schoodic Lake. Otherwise, why was the boat left unattended in the middle of the lake? I added the Maine Cold Case Alliance because it's the only other source that lists Glenn and Jeffrey as missing persons without an extensive search but does not go into detail about the case.
 
A boating accident would make sense, especially if the boat was damaged. It seems unlikely that two people in their 30s would both drown in a lake without some sort of injuries or explained loss of consciousness.
 
It’s either a boating accident or it’s the ending of Brokeback Mountain that many wished for!
