The Slowest speed at which headway can be made and it is still possible to maintain steering control. This can vary in rivers or any other currents, this regulation is typically applied in "no wake" zones, or within 100 feet of shore, to avoid unnatural erosion of shoreline or disruption of wildlife ecology.
May also be referred in the verbage of the law as "bare steerageway."
It is essentially the same as headway speed, or "no wake" speed. The minimum speed necessary to maintain forward motion and steering control.
Idle speed is set by the PCM and is not adjustable. A faulty idle indicates a more complex problem that should be diagnosed.
I had a friend get a ticket for "no wake" or "idle speed" in Virginia. He was told that Idle Speed is the slowest speed that you can go and maintain control of the boat. I guess if you have an steamship, you can go a little faster than a 14 foot Jon boat.

Operating personal watercraft with V type of PFD. trick question... Operating a boat within 300 feet of a diver-down flag on open waters is against the law in Florida...(( unless boat is at idle speed..then it is legal))
Does not have one. Idle speed is controlled electronically through an idle speed control module.
Idle speed is PCM controlled and is not adjustable.Idle speed is PCM controlled and is not adjustable.
Idle speed is computer controlled and is not adjustable.Idle speed is computer controlled and is not adjustable.
how to adjust idle on 2001 legacy
If it has EFI (Electronic Fuel Injection) there is no idle speed adjustment. The idle speed is adjusted electronically.
Idle speed is computer controlled and is not adjustable.Idle speed is computer controlled and is not adjustable.
All vessels operating within the no wake area shall be operated at idle speed. "Idle speed" shall mean the lowest speed at which a vessel can operate, maintain safe steerage, and minimize the production of a wake that could unreasonably interfere with or endanger other persons, property, or water-borne vessels.
