But I must say that these wake issues is why I will boat in a Mac 26X/M or a Carolina Skiff. 12-16 inches draft. Lead the big boys onto the shoals and oyster flats when they try to wake me. Might get a Sea-Tow referral sideline set up to defray gas costs. --Vic |

No one in a big boat is going to follow you onto a shoal or oyster flat purposely trying to wake you. Eisboch |

No one in a big boat is going to follow you onto a shoal or oyster flat purposely trying to wake you. Not that I would do it, but it's not unknown for inattentive, sheep-like drivers of boats - and autos - to follow another into a hazard. I'm not proud of it, but I did once sucker another driver into a speeding ticket. I had noticed that no matter how fast I went on a lightly traveled section of highway, some lady just insisted on passing me. I kept increasing my speed, and backed off just before the crest of a hill where I knew a state trooper often waited on the other side. He was there, waiting. Hey, I didn't force her to be doing 90mph over that hill. --Vic |

Without proper ballast, and especially with the board up you'll be bobbing and rolling like a cork. Lee |
