this. waves made by a single boat with full ballasts about 1/2 mile away.

probably the reason these have been disappearing over the last 5 years.

You should see the aftermath of one running over your buddies pontoon boat trolling 50 yards behind you. To the left is the wake boat with the pontoon bimini top wrapped around its mast. That's furniture in the water. God was looking over them, only one had a laceration on his jaw. If he hadn't ran them over, it would have been us in my Lund ProV

FYI... A new law was passed that went into effect on July 1... they cannot operate a wake boat with wake in any public water less than 400 feet across and they have to be 200 feet from any structure on a body of water (dock)... it has helped here as I have started flagging down all them trying to run up in Bull Run creek when the water is cold in the lake... Personally I think it needs to be yards but it is better than nothing... those things wash out banks horribly
