You can get away with going as fast as you want in the Broads using two simple rules: 1. Don't head directly at any other boats. 2. Alter course to stay 1/4 mile+ away from any boats that are ahead of you. If you follow these rules there's no chance of having your speed accurately read by radar or LIDAR. The areas where they actually look for speeders are bottlenecks that force boats to take a given route, like the route between Bear Island and Meredith Neck. This prevents an cosine error in the speed reading. Keep your speed down in the bottlenecks, it's a smart practice, speed limit or not.
