On our lake, Center Hill, there are almost no lake lots. All the shoreline is controlled by the Army Corp of Engineers. As such, houseboats are the norm. Rudeness to us is the boat operator that has no idea that we can't stop on a dime and cuts in front of us pulling skiers or tubers. If thay fall we will do our best to stop but it still takes time. Wake is our other issue. We usually travel in groups, tied together. A large wake can cause considerable damage. Remember, a boat planed out throws less wake than one plowing. Generally I see little knowledge of basic safety rules. Boats run everywhere and have little regard for others. We all need to be considerate of others whether it's fishing around their dock, operating a PWC or boat, or allowing them to exercise their right to use the lake too. It's tough out there so lets be safe!
