Its not even the 24 fts that cause the problem. The issue are the big displacment hull cruisers and the planing hull 30+ footers that don't have the power to plane well........Where I live the wakes of 98% of the boats aren't a big deal.....there are 3 or four planing hull cruisers that go to moor for the day in the Bay I am in and as they plow up the middle struggling to plane thier wakes cause all the turbulence........and if you ask me I don't think anyone should be singled out, when the lake is at full lake or above for any period of time.....shut it down to NWZ period......
