Jet Ski Wake Jumping

wtibert · 09-12-2015, 09:42 PM

I was coming back into Merdith Bay today in early afternoon. There was a Jet Ski that was cruising around, he circled me, more than 150' away, then came back around to jump my wake.

Is there a distance besides the 150' that he or I should be aware of? He seemed closer than 150' when he was jumping, but I could have been wrong. Trying to make sure I have the appropriate amount (or lack of) annoyance. It's hard enough to manage boats and wakes and craft behind you without someone deliberately being too close. But if I'm wrong, then so be it and I'll adjust.

Simply looking for rule and etiquette discussion.

Thanks.
