Leave clean wakes-and low ones

Article Abstract:

Experimental mariners understand that with a 18 to 26 foot boat having 100-horsepower bolted to the stern, there can be only two speeds, the very fast and the very slow and one should use commonsense while boating. Wakes are part of boating but in supposedly safe anchorages, marinas, and waterways, sudden wakes can spill fuel, break crockery, hurt people, damage boats and erode shorelines.
