Wakesurfing should be restricted to areas on Lake Minnetonka that are consistent with distance from shore and water depths found to be environmentally safe by the University of Minnesota studies on waves and prop wash.
Wakesurfing Can:
- Cause property damage to docks, moored boats, and shorelines.
- Jeopardize the safety of paddlers, swimmers, anglers, and small boats.
- Crowd out other recreational users because their large waves make these activities impossible or far less enjoyable.
- Deprive lakeside residence of their right to the peace, quiet and comfort of their home and outside deck, patio, etc.
- Have adverse environmental impacts on our lakes and rivers such as eroding shorelines, scouring lake beds with their powerful prop wash, thereby causing resuspension of algae promoting phosphorus, uprooting aquatic vegetation, and damaging fish spawning beds and loon nesting sites.
