Many in the wake board boat crowd are especially oblivious to the problem. The design and speaker mounting which is meant to send the sound across the water is significantly different than a regular boat with a sound system designed for the people inside the boat to listen to it. Is is possible to ride a wake board without blaring music? How about a waterproof headset for the wake board enthusiast so that only they listen to the music?

I've mentioned the following event
here years ago.
Early one morning, I heard a buzzing sound. About 30 minutes later, I heard it again.

This happened again and again.
As the morning sun lighted the opposite shoreline, I could see the sound was coming from a wooden Cris-Craft "Laker", about a half-mile away.
It was then I realized I was hearing an automatic electric bailer!
