  • Patent number: 9493213
    Abstract: The inventive technology comprises a wake surf shaper that can be used to modify the wake of a watercraft to make it more “surfable.” It has been discovered that removably attaching the inventive wake surf shaper to one side of a boat's hull interrupts the flow of water diverted around one side of the bow applying force to the hull in such a manner as to dam the column of water diverted around the opposite side of the bow such that the release of water creates an increased wake behind the boat.
