How it is used in Bolivia
'Vamos viendo' and 'el lago manda' are the calm, honest register for anything the weather rules. They aren't a brush-off; they mean the boatman won't promise what the wind decides. The right response is patience, not pressure, you wait, you stay reachable, and you let the water set the pace.
