Abstract A recreational sport boat includes a hull, having starboard and port sides and a transom, and a pair of wake-modifying devices positioned aft of the transom. One of the wake-modifying devices is positioned on a port side of the boat's centerline and another of the wake-modifying devices is positioned on a starboard side of the boat's centerline. Each wake-modifying device includes a plate-like member and at least one downturned surface at a trailing portion of the plate-like member. Each wake-modifying device is pivotable between a non-deployed position and a deployed position about a pivot axis that is horizontal or inclined no more than about 350 from horizontal. When a wake-modifying device is in the deployed position, the downturned surface is lower than it is in the non deployed position so as to be able to modify the boat's wake. 5719249 1 (GHMatters) P97863.AU NIOUSHAA
