THE CAUSE.

WAKE ON. WAKE RESPONSIBLY. 
The WSIA is the towed water sports industry’s leading advocate, known for preserving the vitality of our activities long into the future. As a group, we develop best practices, maintain waterway access rights, educate participants, promote safety and facilitate sustainable industry growth.

​THE PILLARS

Minimize Repetitive Passes
We all seek the calm, protected shorelines and once we find it we claim it as ours. However, repetitively driving back and forth in the same line can damage shores and docks. After a few passes you'll have churned up the water anyways. Take a break, move to another location and return later. Your spot will still be there when you return. 
Keep Music at a Responsible Level
We realize that marine audio stereos are better and louder than ever before. Although water activities and cranking tunes go hand-in-hand, it is importantto be considerate of the time and situation as well as homeowners who might prefer calm and peace over the Weekend's new album on blast.
Stay at Least 200 Feet Away
Staying at least 200 feet away from docks and beaches allows boat wakes to recede enough to minimize any adverse effects when they hit the shore. Don't worry, people will still be able to see your fancy moves from afar. 

DON'T BE THAT GUY.

Our Mission: To promote and protect all towed watersports.

UNDERSTANDING WAVE ENERGY

In 2015, Ocean Engineer and Naval Architect Clifford Goudey scientifically studied and collected wave energy data on the characteristics of boat wakes. WSIA analyzed the data to develop recommendations to protect shorelines, docks and other personal property.
