Seaplane Pilot when can I get a ride?
Codeman breakout the ice boat and see what the wake will be without ice.
Seriously though. The Mount was lengthened some years ago and after that the wake it produces is far smaller. I can attest that the Sophie C and Doris E do have much larger wakes. Just ask my son about the bath he took while we were sitting for the Sopie C to pass many years ago- a 17' bow rider really dives into the wake when not underway. I had a great laugh though, I ducked down.
It is not just large cruisers but all boats with deep vee, extended plane and other technology to give a better ride that produce large wakes. It seems to me to be boats larger than 20' that are the contributors to larger wakes. My boat at 22.5' and a deep V puts out a wake that can be large if not on plane and cruising at 25-30 mph +/-. I try but am not always successfull in preventing a wake that "attacks" the shore line. At least I know and I am aware of the wake and try to control it if I am closer to shore and outside of the 150' rule. Wake speed of course inside 150'.
Alton Bay around Sandy Point is a place where wakes are always a problem due to the path all must take. There are many other places and we all should be diligent to do the best we can and not create large destructive wakes.
As a foot note the large cruisers do put out a very large wake and their number on the lake has been increasing ever so slightly.
