You take a snowmobile across that water it also will make a wake. So if that person is doing more than the speed limit allows in a no wake zone no matter what he is driving he/she is in violation of the law!
Without making me look it up, doesn't No Wake, requiring Headway Speed, also mean a headway speed is a speed that is a minimum speed to maintain control your vessel?

So if 6MPH is too slow to maintain control of your vessel then you can go faster to maintain control?

In other words, if a snowmobile was traveling across the water in a No Wake Zone, leaving no wake but traveling in excess of 80 or 90 mph...would that be a violation of the no wake zone since the snowmobile's headway speed could very well be 80 or 90 mph or it will sink?
