If people would just obey the 150' rule when passing through the Eagle Island channel the no wake zone wouldn't be an issue.

The current laws if they were enforced the no wake zone wouldn't be needed. It seems a bit over kill to me.

Marine Patrol should just enforce the rules they have. Last weekend a person in a boat cut through the Eagle Island narrows within 10 feet of the Mount Washington going full throttle. This tells me that Marine Patrol needs to enforce the basic rules of safe navigation.

We don't need another no wake zone in a narrow channel where the basic 150' rule should prevail.
