I’ve noticed an increasing number of boaters, wave runners and even captains of larger crafts on the waterways this year on the Black River in Lorain, Ohio.
A lot of them show little to no etiquette in the harbors and rivers. They don’t follow the proper speed limits and travel up and down the river causing wakes in “no wake” zones and around the docked boats.
I even see some larger crafts cruising past my slip throwing large wakes into parked boats.
We have local city patrols, harbor patrols and a coast guard station on the river but I haven’t seen anyone stopped. In the past they’ve been out there patrolling but not this year.
How are the observations on other waterways?
