In some cases is it not better to be on plane when passing other boats as you throw a lot smaller wake than you other wise would if you slow down.

This morning I had a meeting with all of our guides with regards to this sub ject and asked them to be extra careful on the stave and all rivers.

Thank you.

Told you. ;) It's a better approach to work with the guides and other boat owners so everyone will have a pleasant experience on the water next time. :)

While talking about this subject when  boats are approaching or leaving boat launching areas please slow right down. You will notice at Island 22 a lot of boats are in such a hurry when leaving to go fishing or on returning they are going way too fast and create a great a wake that rocks the boats being taken off or being loading on the trailers or boats just sitting at the river' s edge getting people aboard.

Those that fish the ocean know around some areas there is speed reduction signs to adhere to, within a certain distance of the launching place or wharf. It is only a common courtesy to do so to your fellow boater.
