Default letter from the sherriff

Got this in the mail today(with a pretty decent picture of myself and good friend rayman007). Really pisses me off. One thing I don't mess with is boating safely and respectively. The letter even admits that it's stupid. The size of my boat makes it almost impossible to navigate up river without creating wake. Wake causes damage to moored boats and erosion to the banks of the river among other things. The faster I go, the smaller the wake. Regardless, I wasn't going faster than 5mph. Just a PITA homeowner that hates people boating past their house.
And Matt, if you see this thread, you may get a letter to. That is a 3reef sticker next to my "HAMMS" stencil....... Too bad I wasn't tipping one back. I'm going to put my pirate flag from my old boat on this one...

Man im mad for ya i know with my boat i cant go slow enough that there is not a wake even if im at an idle on the edge of stalling out. some folks are just aholes no mater what. maybe they should move away from the waters edge if they dont like waves.

about to say, they ever try to push against a current with a 2 stroke engine? no way in heck to do it with 0 wake

if you really want to tick them off get a big trolling motor, like a 72lbs thrust and just go electric and still go that speed, that way they cant hear ya coming haha

I practically live on lake ontario and there are multiple ponds adjacent to it where i live!!! I mean..sure, it's ridiculous that people boat really fast by your house..at like 11pm...but it's also ridiculous that these people complain about small things like this. Ok, when does a boat not make any wake? My neighbors kayak even makes wake!! There's a small marina in a bay by my house and people who live around it complain about it and EVEN took it to the town board!!! They asked them to relocate the marina...how do you relocate a marina? it's stupid!!!

Casey,
The real issue here is the wake "after the fact" i.e. BEHIND YOU !! as this photo clearly shows..it is dissipating within feet of your passing....what a bunch of ma-roooons !!
I agree with Johnnyboy....Looks like your favorite fishing hole from here out....but then again, you don't want a freak'n ticket for "wake infraction" after buying a license, registering your boat, buying tackle and or bait (all stimulating local resources) We cannot even fish for Salmon this year because of the massive poaching going on...but boy do they have time to come out and check us for any infractions when we have our license clearly visible....to hell in a hand basket I say.
Bummer to ya...sorry to hear about this.
LG
