Using two Netgear Orbi AC3000 RBS50Y to increase coverage range
We currently have on Netgear RBS50Y to extend our WiFi range from a main building down to the Lake front. Its about 750 yards. Down there I have 8 ARLO cameras connected to the same ARLO Base with ...

IMO the key point is whether there is electrical supply down at the lake. No electricity means no equipment (from any vendor).
In my wildest dreams I would never have imagined that those ARLO cameras would connect from 750 ft. away.

There is electricity at the lake. 20 of 23 cameras are connected using Ubiquiti Nanobeam. I would be looking at another Nanobeam for the last three cameras.

Down at the lake with your NanoBeam receiver, I assume you have a PoE connector and cables. On land where we use a series of NanoBeams, the last one in line connects to a PoE and from there goes to our Router via cable.
How is your NanoBeam setup down at the lake?

We have decided to go with 2 Netgear Orbi AC3000 extenders. One is already in place at the club house. I will connect the second one and bring it down to the lake front.
Question, since this is an outdoor piece of equipment, will I need a plastic enclosure to protect it from the elements?
Some say yes, others say it is not necessary, but I was hoping Netgear folks can answer this one.
