Wakes and waves are part of life on the Lake....we all knew that when we bought property unless we had blinders on.

However, should people be buzzing your dock with a boat or jet ski? no. Should they keep a reasonable distance? yes. I think a 100 foot law  for anything over idle is reasonable, but that is not the law. The MP has the ability to enforce judgment calls on reckless operation, but typically a perturbed property owner will be far more stringent in their interpretation of such than an unbiased onlooker (such as the Marine Police).  Even with a 100 foot idle law,  wakes will still effect most people on the lake and should be expected and planned for in pier and sea wall construction.

Like 8 said, it's a public lake. When one chooses to live on a lake, golf course, or other desirable public area, they must be willing to accept the good with what they may consider bad.
