I have no dog in this fight, however:

Wolfiebayer,

You lose credibility when you post incorrect information in your argument. There is NO LAW regulating the speed through the markers at the Graveyard. That is NOT a channel. It is an area marking rocks for navigation purposes only. Any boater may legally pass through that area, on plane, at any speed. The one exception was noted here. That is if another boat is coming through the area it is too narrow to pass 150 feet apart legally, therefore you must come off plane. Often times this is the rule that is broken in that area.

Hole in the wall is in fact a No Wake Zone if the Graveyard was a No Wake Zone it would be marked as such.

I will say that I would have liked to see the Boater Regulation Laws full effect before they enacted a speed limit but......... I guess that is not going to happen.
