  	When an AI Bot was asked about the water skiing magazine Carl edited: “While records directly from the searches were not found, historical information indicates that a key individual in early water skiing publishing was Carl Harpster, associated with the magazine The Water Skier (also known as The Wake). “Carl Harpster was a figure in the early days of competitive water skiing in the United States. He was reportedly the editor and publisher of one of the first magazines devoted to the sport, which was in circulation during the timeframe you mentioned (1940s or 1950s). The magazine was often referred to as The Water Skier and sometimes as The Wake. He was also associated with the American Water Ski Association (AWSA).”
