Zero experience with wakeboats, but I gotta think they suck a lot of fuel? Maybe a bit less popular this year?

It would totally be interesting to know the demographics for pontoon vs. jet vs. runabout, etc. Just going by who I've seen on wakeboats blasting music at sandbars and quiet coves—trust-fund bros and Guidos—I'm not sure money's an issue.

Ok, ok, so that's ultra-stereotypical and judgmental, I get it, but literally my experience these last eight years.

Like, 50+ year-old hairy-chested dudes wearing gold chains and smoking cigars among a stable of young(er) women. Historically, out-of-shape but this last decade could involve manscaped dudes trying their best to hold on to their bench press maxes from their Kappa Phi days.

I think?!

Seaplane Pilot, in the next line, he admitted to being "ultra-stereotypical and judgemental", so as an educator I am disappointed that he uses that particular term. Hopefully he's not stereotypical and judgemental dealing with his students.

Actually, stereotypes (and slurs) are central to one of the units in my rhetoric class—specifically, in terms of power structure and social hierarchy. It's one of the best.

Thanks for thinking of my students!
