Making Waves
|
There was no ocean but still lots of motion as surfing a wake, generated behind this boat creates hours of wet entertainment at Dilberry Lake. Here owner Chris Werenka of Provost takes a turn but without a tow rope—balancing on his board while heading across the waters with Derek Graham taking the controls. Werenka later explained that the powerful Corvette engine is held to drive the craft at 11 miles per hour for optimum wave-making, while water for ballast is taken on for extra weight during the experience. This watercraft is busy all summer taking water enthusiasts for rides including those new to the sport who begin learning while holding onto a rope. ©Provost News Photo.
