Support Texas Legislation that mirrors wakesurf boat manufacturers recommendations for usage on Texas Lakes similar to:

1.  A measurable distance. For boats operating with ballast or a wake-enhancing device, a minimum distance of 200 feet from shorelines, docks, other structures, moored boats and people in the water. This is the industry's own standard and the one most states with wake laws have used.

2.  A depth guideline. A minimum water depth drawn from the industry's own guidance (at least 10 feet, ideally 15 to 20), with room to adapt it to each lake.

3.  Clear definitions. A plain definition of wake-enhanced operation, so that boaters, dealers, and officers, are clear in their definition of a wakesurf boat.

4.  Education first. Information for new boat buyers at the point of sale and clear signage at ramps, with warnings and education as the first response, so that the rules are learned before they are enforced.

5.  Rider safety. Life jackets for riders and no riding behind a boat with an exposed propeller, as the industry's own model law proposes.
