Abstract
A boat wake enhancer is described comprising a water tank mounted at the rear of an inboard motor boat, wherein the tank can be filled and emptied while the boat is in use. When filled, a more desirable wake is provided for water skiing and when emptied, the boat will plane more easily and generate a smaller wake.
