The shortest distance in the yellow zone is calculated at roughly 400ft according to google maps so how does that qualify for a No Wake Zone?

There is one other no wake buoy, not on the navigation map, that is near the large rock that everyone likes to jump off, so is that really an official buoy if it is not marked on the map? And is it just there for the area behind the rock, which is definitely less then 150ft? Why would a buoy in that location have anything to do with going into the yellow zone if the distance is more the 150ft in every other direction?

The bottom-most no wake buoy in your image is further up towards the entrance to the cove and is the one that reads "entire cove."

Your yellow area, though it might technically allow 150' distance, is still covered by the NWZ designation.

As mentioned, most of that area is impossible to be more than 150' from any one point, which is almost certainly the reason the NWZ was established for the whole area.

What program did you use to measure the 400', by the way, because it doesn't seem to be that far, especially when the rock outcropping is taken into consideration.
