Default Not that simple

Never underestimate human stupidity. I've seen daytrippers slide off their trailer in Meredith and hit it from the docks all the way out. Best one this season was a beautiful antique leaving the docks after the show at full power. You'd think that the mature gentleman at the helm would know better or at least be more considerate.

Although ALL boaters should know the 'rules of the road' before setting out, wouldn't a sign at the ramp noting the no-wake zone as well as the 150' rule be helpful? (removes ignorance, no cure for stupid)
