Communities limit bigger wakes

There's always something for people to complain about...

FROM Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

...The Village of Thiensville and City of Mequon, in Ozaukee County, each have adopted an ordinance - unique in Wisconsin, for now - that prohibits artificial wake enhancement.

That's what wakeboarders do by filling ballast tanks in their special boats, or using hydrofoils that pull down the stern, or just loading more people in the back of the boat.
