1. For Skippermark - headway speed (no wake in NH) means the slowest speed you can go and maintain control of your vessel. If the wakes thrown up by boats in the Graveyard were making you lose control at headway speed you are justified in increasing your speed to be safe.
2. For SAB1 - 2 boats passing close on a plane is nothing like two cars passing on a highway. Cars don’t kick up a wake. Look behind you some times and watch the boats trying to navigate your wake (see Skippermark’s post.)
If people would spend as much time trying to obey the rules/regulations as they do trying to justify why they don’t need to we all would be better off.
