Recently, a new environmental concern has popped up across several areas of the U.S. It is the impact of the high-powered wake boat.
Wake boats are designed to create big waves - much larger than those created by waterski and fishing boats. When wake boats are operated in deep water on large lakes, far from shore and smaller boats, wake boats do not pose a problem for the lake's health.
However, on small, shallow lakes, such as North and South Center Lakes, damage can occur. To learn more about the emerging science and politics surrounding this topic, we suggest following the link below to an article published by Minnesota Lakes and Rivers. Minnesota Lakes and Rivers is a non-profit organization to dedicated to advocating for Minnesota's lake and river communities.
