Best Answer

The minimum speed under which headway can be made and steering control can be maintained. This produces little to no wake, protecting shorelines from artificial erosion. Typically this is 3 to 5 knots, or more in a current.

Best describes no wake or idle speed under Virginia boating laws?

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.


When boating in an area that has no posted speed limit what determines the legal speed?

The conditions and circumstances at any given place and time determine the speed. While there may be no speed limits on boats in certain areas, under all boating regulations, boats must be driven only at safe speeds. The boater must take into account all of the conditions and circumstances in order to determine the proper speed. If a boater were in an unposted speed area at night, in fog with many other boats in the areas, he/she would not be permitted to go as fast as he/she wanted to go.
