I might guess 3/4's or more see more cons than pros to wake boarding. Further, these boats make up only a small sliver of the population on the lake.

Does anybody really believe that "the people" object to some sort of regulation on this by a margin of 10 to 1?
My guess is they were well organized.

I’m sure people that invested $100K were more inclined to show up and speak up than ones with a paddle board or a canoe.

The problem with being responsible for your wake is, it’s a cumulative problem with the shoreline.
