(A) Every motorboat, when approaching or passing a public dock, pier or ramp, shall slacken speed to the extent necessary to avoid endangering persons or property by the effect of the motorboat’s wake and when operated within 300 feet of a public dock, pier or ramp every motorboat shall be operated at a reduced speed such that the vessel can be stopped, if necessary, prior to striking the public dock, pier or ramp or other motorboats making use of said facilities; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall prevent a motorboat from pulling up to or tying to the public dock, pier or ramp if the action is undertaken with due care and is not otherwise prohibited by law.
(B) Every motorboat, when operated in an area posted with "No Wake" signs, shall slacken speed to the extent necessary to avoid endangering persons or property by the effect of the motorboat's wake.
