I was out on the lake today and I was amazed at of the folks who were out there weren't aware of the extended No Wake Zone.

One fellow was just coming out from under the Governor's Island bridge and started to roll up on his throttle. I signalled to him to slow down. He backed off and came aside. When I informed him of the extended no wake zone, he didn't believe me. A quick call to the Marine Patrol on VHF 16 to inquire about it proved the point. The guy was apologetic and wondered why he didn't know about it. I told him I wasn't surprised as it wasn't all that well publicized except a day or two before Memorial Day weekend.

He asked when it would be repealed and I told him I didn't know and that he best check with the MP before heading out.
