Bear islander,

I was a participant and I can tell you that all boats I saw slowed to nws including me. And at best, there were boats in that zone for less than 5 mins if some didn't.

Everyone was being safe and respectful and as the run went by, others enjoying the lake but not in the run seemed to enjoy it. The thumbs up and waves were so frequent we lost count.

You can post all you want about participants going no wake speed.

I was there!

If you want to prove something post some pictures or video.

Default We are all there via your web cam

BI, all anyone has to do is look at your web cam and see countless boats of all shapes and sizes violating the no wake by your house. Why do you choose to single out this particular type of boat/event?

So to be clear, you want me to post a video I took of people going no wake speed? I can show you one the clearly shows 45mph in the broads. ;-)

I was also involved and everybody slowed down to no wake speeds in the no wake zones.

99% of the non-participants we encountered were loving it. You will always get a few grumpy killjoys that have a problem with anything fun, but as far as I can see, they were a small minority.
