I posted this way back in this thread but the Coast Guard does have not only an opinion but a rule:
RULE 6
SAFE SPEED
Every vessel shall at all times proceed at a safe speed so that she can take proper and effective action to avoid collision and be stopped within a distance appropriate to the prevailing circumstances and conditions.
I tend to value their opinion and experience.

As do I, unfortunately NH has never adopted Rule 6.
