Jetski idiots

On my lake jetskis seem to be a real problem, people send there 12 yr olds out on the water with no idea what they are doing, ive had to bail to avoid getting hit by a jetskier who cut between me and the boat, we also have the daredevil jetskiers who follow right behind the boat jumping the wake, completely unaware of the person being pulled and wether or not they have fallen. does any one else have to deal with this?

ImSoWakested, i was out on the river yesterday and since it was memorial day weekend, everybody and there sister was out on the river. i hear ya when u say the jetskiers follow right behind the person being pulled. we stopped the boat and were switchin riders... the rope was still out in the water about 50 ft. out... some idiot decides to drive past us about not even 10 ft... i start winding in the rope as fast as i can... im just like dude...WAT THE FVCK?

It's Memorial Day, it's gonna happen. We usually take Memorial Day and Labor Day as a chill at home day. You definitely don't want to be on the water those days or the 4th of July.

Last summer on my lake, a young, unexperienced driver on seadoo hit her mom on another seadoo and killed her mom instantly. damn..

i used to have that problem but now we are on a private lake and it is butter even on the 4th of july, but on our previous lake it was observation/idiot watch day on holidays in the summer.

i would never endanger the life of a passenger by pulling them on a holiday...btw michigan has very little lake patrol and almost no drunk driving boat laws so it gets pretty sketchy on our inland lakes
