Rhinelander, WI – Without clear statewide guidance for wake boat use on Wisconsin lakes, local communities are struggling to balance recreation with the health of their lake ecosystems. Some critics, responding to the increasing popularity of wake boats on inland lakes, have called for restricting the use of these specially designed boats. To provide a science-based approach, conservation nonprofit Wisconsin’s Green Fire (WGF) released a new report on the effects of wake boats on lake ecosystems.
