100 MPH Through No Wake Zone?

Bear Islander · 08-07-2010, 08:03 PM

Saturday afternoon I was boating around Governors Island and saw a red Cigarrete boat with yellow trim being worked on. Engine compartment open. Around 7PM a boat, I think the same one, went around Bear Island. The boat was going so fast through the NWZ that I had a hard time turning my head fast enough to keep it in sight. I have never seen a boat go anywhere near that fast.

About a minute later a Marine Patrol boat came around the corner full speed then he slowed down. I turned up my scanner and heard the dispatcher ask how the chase was going. The officer replied "I can't touch him, he is going twice my speed". Then "I'll go to his house on Governors and wait for him".

Anybody know how this ended?
