Two moving boats can usually alter their courses slightly so they pass more than 150' apart. Unless of course you are in a narrow spot.
In theory this should work great. If your the only boat around you can stay on plane through the Graveyard, etc. But if there enough boats around that you cannot maintain a safe distance, then everyone needs to slow down. Nothing is perfect but this tries to addresses the problem.
The big problem is people don't know the rule, or pretend they don't.
