Don, I've been on the lake virtually every day for the last 50 years. The roughest, most crowded July Fourth weekend up to the 1990's was FAR calmer than the average, non-holiday Saturday now. It's not just the number of boats, it's the type of boat. Yes, wakeboard boats are bad (have you considered NOT selling them anymore, since you agree that they are a problem?) But the bigger boats, the Gulf cruiser boats, are worse; they have a wider beam and a deeper draft, and therefore displace much more water than the wakeboard boats, thus creating larger wakes. (And the fact that most of the operators cruise well below planing speed just makes it that much worse. In fact, I could probably abide by them if the very way they are driven didn't so emphasize the fact that they are NOT meant for a body of water like Lake Martin.)

On another subject: have you considered changing the name of your marina? Because you don't want anyone to get you mixed up with these guys: www.anchorbaymarina.com. (It's an interesting website, and quite a story; though I disagree with you on the "big boats" issue, I do thank the lucky stars that you run a marina that I'm happy to give my business to!)
