Dear lord are there not size restrictions on Lanier or were those grandfathered in? What gets me is all the talk about banning wake boats due to large waves and wakes but those massive cabin cruisers and speed boats displace A TON of water, more than any wake boat can do. Your boat almost disappeared next to the others lol.

No not gathered in. A couple of docks over are 60-80 foot house boats. At a dock A little north of there is a marina with predominantly sail boats.
Big lake and only our second time out on it since moving to the area. Much to explore.

That’s crazy they allow those there!! Lake Martin is larger than Lanier but we have size restrictions 30’6” and they can’t have a top speed greater than 60 mph, unless grandfathered in. That being said our lake is overpopulated at times much like I’m sure Lanier is and I could not imagine dealing with those big ass boats.

Some of the boat wakes in our 19' are definitely a challenge.

We definitely have bigger boats
 
Finally got out for the first time this year. Almost 2 months later than last year :( the first really nice day in Portland.

Great day for some chill and relax. After dinner laid back on the bow to catch the band playing on the upper deck.

Anyone from Tallahassee area on here?

Are the historic ships still uncovered and visible on Dog Island? The ones Hurricane Michael uncovered?
 
After spending the morning doing sprinklers we took the boat out for a spin. After two tries my son got up on the wakeboard. He was grinning and talking about it for the rest of the night! Looking forward to spending the summer out on the lake!

We were discussing this not long ago. Last year on my birthday (mid April) we were on the boat and it was 80 degrees. This year it snowed.

Looks good! I have the same Bimini cover. How much rub are you noticing with the wakeboard rope?
