I think the situation with wake boats is becoming more of a serious problem than most people realize. Your post certainly attests  to just one type of damage that can be caused by the "waves" from wake boats. However, when posts are made to an earlier post that is several days old it is most likely not read by most people. I think it would be helpful to all Lake Martin users if you would repeat your post so it "shows" up as a new post and will get the attention of everyone who is witnessing the types of damage that can result from wake boats if their owners fail to acknowledge results from their "huge" waves. For anyone who failed to read all the posts that began on 7/30/2018, Subject:"South end of the lake", Pontoonfisher, I suggest you read them, particularly the one on 7/31/2018 by F1Fan. It is "scary". I want everyone to enjoy all the "fun" things that go along with spending a "day" on the lake, but boat owners of all tpes have to be held responsible for the "actions" they create. I seriously think the time is not too  far away when a "serious" injury or "death" is going to result from the carelessness we see everyday on the lake. My concern is not directed solely at wake boat owners but I believe they present "more" situations for danger than most other lake activities. One case I see quiet possible is kids floating on thier "lily pads" near their dock and a "huge" wake slams them into the dock. Numerous other possibilities exist for similar situations to occur!!!!!!!!
