Plan for:
- Busy ramps
- Bigger wakes
- More people anchored in coves
- Later returns and higher fatigue
A Low-Stress Plan

- Do towing/surfing early on calmer water
- Use midday for cove time and shade
- Pick a “head back” time before the ramp gets chaotic
Crowd Safety Habits
- Extra spacing when towing
- Slower speed near docks
- Keep swimmers close and monitored
- Avoid cutting through congested anchored areas
