There really is a huge difference negotiating that tidal flow out/in Hampton Harbor. I have done it on my PWC also.The main difference between nwz there and on the lake is you can practically stop on the lake and maintain control.That is not possible in a fast tidal current,especially in a larger craft.If you screw up on a pwc you can pretty much turn on a dime and resume your course.It's a whole other story with a big craft if your get it sideways.Don't forget that NWZ's are supposed to be no more than 6 mph or a speed to maintain control.Skip could point out the exact wording I'm sure.
