Wakesurf spots, boats, and boards — the structured directory and gear specs
Esme Navarro leads how WakeSurfSpots reads and presents its core wakesurf data — the state-by-state spot directory and the structured boat and board specifications. The role decides which waterbody records from the USGS National Hydrography Dataset and which water-temperature observations from NOAA CO-OPS and Open-Meteo each spot page uses for its best-season window, and how published manufacturer specs are compiled into one comparable schema. Spot, boat, and board figures are drafted with AI assistance and editorially reviewed against the underlying USGS, NOAA, Open-Meteo, and manufacturer sources before publication; we never invent specs, and every value traces to a cited source.
