Arrow Not So Much "Driving" as "Operating""...

"FWIW, I'm in my 30s and listen to everything from rap to country and one of my favorite stations in Van Morrison radio. I don't drive a wakeboard boat. It takes more time to come on here and gripe...knowing that those young kids driving a wake boat enjoying themselves and having fun in the heart of the summer are not paying attention to comments here. If anything, I find the younger generation uses complaints as fuel to continue bothering people (I don't know why)."
I don't know if you've noticed, but where surf-boats (wake-boats) operate, other boating activities--especially skiing--have been made more difficult.

I have a huge view of Winter Harbor. When wake-boats come out, most other boating activities will disappear within a few minutes. There's something very wrong about operating a boat designed to be inefficient.



As for youth "paying attention", the lessons that went with boating license awareness has also disappeared.
