Well he has to get there before the other guys arms give out.

That looks like Long Island bridge, I hope there's enough water under there. When much younger, friends swore they jumped off the GI bridge. It looks way too shallow in there for me.

Back to my original question. I've been told that 6 MPH is the absolute limit. The law reads ambiguously to me, but there may be a standard legal way of reading "or" in this context. Without being Clintonesque, it depends what "or" means.

This gets into the whole discussion of how slow do you have to go in the channel with traffic versus going through an un-crowded NWZ.

Assumming no traffic, I can push to 6.0 MPH on the GPS regardless of the wake?
