NO WAKE

"No wake" is the nautical term for a speed limit for boats that they must be moving slow enough not to leave a wake. A no wake zone dictates that any vessel must operate at the minimum speed that allows you to maintain steering and make headway.

In Pentwater, the channel is designated as a no wake zone, and thus, boats traveling through the channel should not be going fast enough to leave a wake. If you see a boat with a wake, please shout "NO WAKE" loudly and repeatedly until they comply with the no wake speed limit.

"NO WAKE" can be shouted at any vessel in the channel, whether or not they are actually producing a wake. Feel free to shout NO WAKE even when there aren't any boats in the channel.
