Thanks Skip

The area 150 feet north of the Bear Island mail dock to 150 feet south of the mail dock in the channel between the Bear Island Post Office and Pine Island shall be a "no wake" area.

Here again we have an example of the difference between what is on paper and what the Marine Patrol actually does. The Bear Island NWZ should be 300 feet long. In reality, as buoyed, it is 1,200 feet long.

The NWZ is defined by four buoys making up the corners of a box, or quadrilateral. When you are in the box, you are in the NWZ.
