Small Boats and Situational Awareness
A relaxing glide across the lake in your kayak or canoe is a great way to see the landscapes around you while also getting some exercise! However, this experience can be quickly ruined if your paddle craft or small motorboat is swamped by the wake of another boat. You must practice situational awareness and be aware of the effect of your wake on smaller boats.
