Wakes produced by wake sport boats can reach a depth of 20 ft below the water surface and take at least 500 feet to dissipate.
I am still learning. I did read through the code of ordinances today... tomorrow my top priority is starting to review those financial policy.
If we were to move it to 500 ft, it would push people out of a lot of the areas of the lake and put it really in a higher concentration.
