When we were cruising on the sailboat, we took our dog ("Cindy the boat dog!") with us on the four-year cruise. She could spot a wake coming long before I could, and would jump down to a secure spot to ride it out. Wakes are just a part of life if you are on a sailboat, and no more use to fret about them than to fret about jellyfish in the Chesapeake. I memorized the Serenity Prayer. Also did a lot of target practice with an imaginary rifle.
