Really don't want to go the wake boat route but wondering if time has passed us by and want to keep teen grandkids interested in water sports
Sadly I see about 100 to 1 ratio of tubers to water skiers.

At this point I think I see more wake surfers than water skiers,,, Sadly,,, And I would welcome a good 70's above the water line open exhaust ski boat ANY day to the crap coming out of the stadium sound systems on the towers of the wake boats.

Not much you can do, change is not easy to stop, so the best you can hope for is something better to come along to replace whatever is the annoying fad of the day is.
