I'm trying to make Headway speed
into the Weirs Channel near the bridge against the current and a marine patrol officer actually flag a number of us to slow down, there is a wake and use the horn that it is a no wake zone. Of course he was travelling in the opposite direction. Fellow boaters looked at each other puzzled as to what he is trying to do! We will not make headway speed against the current if we go any slower!
I do know from past experience that unexperienced marine patrol officers don't always get rulings right. As I mentioned in a prior post, I was anchored with my anchor light on, a young marine patrol officer insist that my running lights (green/red) has to be on as well. When I explained to the sargent the next day, he took my ticket and told me not to worry about it.
