Law Enforcement was EVERYWHERE!! Like they planned to bust people for speeding through the no wake areas.
We ran past a few LE boats at high speeds and never got a dirty look. I think theres definately parts that are not speed controled along the way.

Its 30mph up to a little past Ormond (not usually enforced!!).... then it opens up. There is an idle zone for the bridge at Flager, and another for the bridge at Crescent Beach. I've done it a couple of times in 1 hour without pushing it too hard.

The open areas are north of Highbridge road, sign says "Resume Normal Safe Operation", in the Mantanzas area it drops to 30 MPH then after the Cresent bridge it "Resumes"
I was pulled over in the Ormond area for 63 in a 30. Guy offered a no muffler ticket or speed both $63. I said muffler ticket. They were setting up for the DPR last year and I happened to be heading to the start so I got the first ticket. We regrouped and headed outside instead, cop was waiting for nothing!

"The water pressure in my opinion its too high. But Mercury wants it that high. Merc 600s, 700s, 850s and 1075s require high water pressure or alarms go off. Minimum 24 to 27 psi at wide open, or alarms go off. You must have a minimum of 18 psi at cruising speeds. The Gladiator runs 18-20 psi at cruising speed and 30-35 psi at w.o.t. Its a lot but that's what they want.
