Congratulations to our Executive Director, Corrie Wilson, along with other women from the watersports industry recognized in the “2022 Women Making Waves”
Women Making Waves is Boating Industry’s effort to recognize the multitude of women in the industry who have made and continue to make great contributions to its success, propel its growth and lead their organizations and peers into the future.
Now in its fifth year and becoming a part of Boating Industry’s Top 100 Awards, the program is stronger than ever before. With over 120 well-qualified nominations for this year’s Women Making Waves, choosing this year’s honorees was no simple task.
There is such a large and continuously growing number women doing incredible work in our industry that the pages of the magazine simply don’t provide enough space to honor each and every one. However, the women recognized have given everything they have and more to the marine industry and have accomplished so much, with a pledge to continue pushing the industry forward.
We’re excited you’re joining us for the Nautique Southeast Regatta, June 3rd-5th!
An action-packed weekend on and off the water can be expected! Helpful information regarding the upcoming weekend:

Saturday, June 4th: Wristbands can be picked up from the dock. Look for a staff member wearing a Nautique shirt on the dock. NOTE – Wristbands can not be picked up at the entrance gates on land.
Boat Slips
Boat slips will be clearly labeled with Nautique Southeast Regatta signage for those individuals who have registered and said they are bringing their Nautique. Let the dock attendant know that you are with the Nautique Regatta. The map below outlines the slips reserved for the weekend.
If you would like to reserve a slip for a longer period of time outside of the Regatta dates, you can do so HERE.
Boat Ramp
There are several ramps on Lake Lanier that you can use but the closest one to the event location is HERE.
Trailer Parking
If you will be parking a boat trailer at Lake Lanier Islands, they have requested that we do so either at the boat ramp parking or in the lot below near the Legacy Lodge and not use their main parking lot.
Coolers, Food and Beverages
When returning to your boat, Landshark Landing staff will NOT allow coolers to be brought through their gates to be loaded onto the dock. We recommend stocking your cooler for the weekend. If you want to stock your cooler between days, we recommend planning to meet someone with your cooler at another location such as the boat ramp or another point on land as you will not be able to bring it through Landshark.

H/L RIOT LOADED: LIGHT, SNAPPY, NEXT LEVEL LOADED CONSTRUCTION
Loaded Construction marks the dawn of the most advanced construction ever offered in the wake industry. Utilizing Proprietary materials and manufacturing processes, Loaded Construction delivers the lightest and most responsive wakeboard to date, a perfect match for Noah’s RIOT signature wakeboard shape. The RIOT project began as Noah was looking for a shape that would transition quickly from edge to edge, build speed on approach and release cleanly from the wake to initiate every trick. The Variable Edge Design sharpens over the last 10 inches providing the speed and clean release. Between the inserts the bevel is enhanced, delivering the forgiveness needed when learning new tricks. The RIOT incorporates the thinnest profile ever seen for hitting the wake and swing weight is truly minimal. This profile also provides a lively feel as the board has some flex creating massive pop.
