Next message: Rich Gano: "Re: T&T: Nautical terms"
Bob Smith sez, "I think "no wake" means no wake. Rick, I respectfully
submit that it depends on the hull. My almost full-displacement LRC can
do just shy of 6k without a wake...my idle speed is 3k. A Fleming 55 at
6k has quite a wake from its planing hull. And the shorter the LWL, the
lower the speed to get to 'no wake.'"
Just to further expound, in Florida we have no-wake zones AND places
where idle speed is required. You can legally be above idle speed in a
no-wake zone if you are leaving no wake.
