Explain to this landlubber what exactly is a jet ski “restricted zone”?!?!
Sounds like an area where people were swimming and didn’t want to be hit by idiots.
Ping—and help!
“Explain to this landlubber what exactly is a jet ski “restricted zone.”
It’s a designated area of a waterway where all boats under power are not permitted cause enough waves to do damage to docked boats and structures in the area.
Around here they’re call “No Wake” zones, meaning your not allowed to travel fast enough to create a wake. Idiots who violate them can do serious damage to property and infrastructure. People have been killed in some cases.
Having owned a few boats and seen the damage these morons cause I’d have no problem if the cops tuned his ass up right there on the side of the road.

You are responsible for the damage your wake causes.
Operators of these craft often act as though they have carte blanche to act like Hell’s Angels on water.
I live on a canal connected with direct access to many lakes in the region. There are NO WAKE signs everywhere, including IDLE ZONE ONLY zones for good reason.
Some people feel as though they are entitled to ignore such signs and will produce sizable wakes therefor bashing moored boats into seawalls, docks, etc.
They consistently buzz other boats and people in the water just to be a**holes.
