Do you really believe that people run around on the water

deliberately
trying to wake sailboats?



Some do, it's a fact. Ask the GC.

I've seen plenty of guys in floating RV-Condo boats coming down the ICW,
oblivious to their wakes. They didn't give a damn they were damaging
shell banks, or rocking the hell out of small boats along the way.
Justice arrived when some of them ran aground on a sandbar a little
south of where we lived near St. Augustine.
