Agreed with Swelch. Banning "wake boats" won't do a thing just like the length limit on boats didn't do a thing. It's the behavior that is the problem. I see no correlation to the type of boat to the behavior of the owner.

Yes, I see wake board / wake surfers that come too close to docks throwing huge wakes. But I have also seen all kinds of other boats do it- PWCs, pontoons, bass boats, center consoles, runabouts, whatever. Brand new boats - and boats that look like they were built in the 70s. Doesn't matter. It's the person behind the wheel.

In fact, last weekend some gray haired folks in a really modest looking older model pontoon boat came churning by my dock - about 3 feet off of it. Our kids were in the water but thankfully not near their path (that time). My first thought was not about the waves that it caused, but making sure everyone was safe.

That being said, trust me, you can ask anyone that knows me - inconsiderate boating is very high on my list of pet peeves.
