There has been no change in the law. No-wake speed is not required in a channel.

Most people don't realize, however, that a narrow channel does not create an exception to the 150 foot rule. If, for example, one is going west through this channel and a boat approaches from the other direction, each must slow down to no-wake speed before they get within 150 feet of each other.
