I just reviewed the link provided below in another thread by Gary of the WP. It looks like I may have been mistaken about the 100ft rule. The only reference I could find was to stay 100ft away from divers bouys. Maybe my Dad made that rule up, oh so many years ago, when teaching me to operate a boat..... LOL. If so his intentions were to make me a safer boater, and so far it has worked. I will continue to follow that guide in my personal boating. If it is not a law, is is common courtesy, which should dictate our behavior as much as laws.

But in any case there are enough rules and regulations about "reckless operations" to cover folks acting like fools. We know that Gary of the Wp cruises this forum so maybe he could enlighten us as to the actual law reagarding wakes in confined areas (such as sloughs).

But I still think each of us should take PERSONAL responsibilty for our watercraft when moored.
