Question: Are these marks to indicate a NO WAKE ZONE, NO MOTORIZED ZONE, or a SLOW SPEED ZONE? I think that this makes a difference.

If it's a slow speed zone I think we would have a hard time reasoning that riding inside them is ok. I think No Motor Zones are fully ok as long as we adhere to the rest of the safe riding guidelines. No Wake Zones are pretty grey, but if you stick to the letter of the law, even no wake zones have speed stipulations from what I've read.

I guess that it's a question that your local riders need to agree on. From my understanding if you ride along the coast in your area, many times you are riding in these zones.

Regarding larger events running down the coast, I'd suggest that starting them before 10 a.m. would probably minimize the issues during this time of year.
