My observation this weekend was there seemed to be more boaters on the lake that didn't seem to understand courtesy or common sense.  It was such a glorious weekend that it brought a lot of boaters out of the woodwork.

My pet peeve is boaters that pull floats and churn up the water in the more isolated areas that people are trying to ski in.  When we pull our floats we go right to the big water so our waves don't disrupt the skiers.  They have every right to be there but I can't understand why they want to pull floats and make big waves in calmer areas when they can get way more bang for their buck in the open.   On the positive side, there were several of us pulling skiers/wakeboards along a narrow uninhabited slew and all were courteous to take a turn with the calm water and let the others have a run.  Also had several boats running along churning up a wake slow down to idle near our skiers in the water so they could get out.  Lot's of courteous people out there as well.

Either way, was the most pleasant weather on the lake for the fourth in a long, long time.  Sorry to hear about your mishap.  It is one of many reasons why I don't go out on the 4th at night.  Fireworks from the shore works just fine for me.
