zones are identified on the official Cocoa Beach Waterways Chart and by official signs.
It shall be a violation of this article for any person to operate a motorboat at any
speed in excess of any speed limit which may be posted or at any speed which creates
a damaging wake or a wake which causes or tends to cause harm to the person or property
of others.
