Weirs Channel
The biggest challenge in the Weirs channel is when you are going with the current. When the dam is dumping 1500 cps or more, not common during the summer, but common in the spring, the current in the channel is 3.5 knots or higher. Controlling a boat with a wide beam and keeping your speed relative to the land below 5 mph is completely impossible when the dam is dumping water to reduce the level of the lake.
There are reasons for the current language and one hard rule with a specific speed will not work in all areas, all the time.
