We travel in different social circles!

Not "surprisingly", I meet a lot of people who are tired of the big wakes and obnoxiously loud stereos with the speakers mounted high on the boat. When the clowns with these boats decide that their next two or three hours of wakesurfing fun will be in front of your house, you have to go inside, close the windows, and watch your boat bounce off of the dock as the large wakes wash up on your lawn.

Because of the speaker mounting on these boats the sound travels for miles and the operators seem oblivious to the hundreds of people they are disturbing when they go out to play. Loud music is not a problem on most boats because the speakers are mounted for the people ON THE BOAT to hear the music, and don't disturb everyone else trying to enjoy the lake.
