Adjusting the No Wake Zone law

fatlazyless · 02-17-2019, 08:30 AM

At no wake speed of 6-mph, the larger hull of a bigger boat makes it more difficult for the captain to maintain the desired direction. Not enough engine torque to control it against wind, waves, and current.

Is just like trying to paddle a stand up paddle board using just your hands, and not the paddle, with the sup gets pushed by wind, waves and current.

Moving water can have a lot of resistance working against the hull, and more resistance working against a bigger hull.

See ...... you need to get a smaller boat!
