Ridiculous "No Wake" Declaration

I think the Dept of Safety actually made things worse. I saw more boats going at speeds just above planing off. This caused more wakes than if they increased their speed. So people were trying to be cautions and drive slow, but actually were causing more harm than good. I saw about 40% of the boats obey the rule. The rest forgot all the other rules about boating, like 150 feet from other boaters and what a no wake zone marker looks like.
