Yesterday, during our open water class, we witnessed a boat come inside the buoys and drop anchor about 100 yards from shore, and 25-30 yards from my dive float at Les Davis. He was a diver and him and his passengers suited up and dropped in to dive. He moved slowly in the zone but with the wind and rain yesterday, it was hard to see bubbles in the water. With new divers in the water, I was worried he was going to drive over the top of us. We waved at him to move his boat out of the area but he refused.
I found it quite strange. All the cool spots to dive from a boat in Puget Sound and he brings his boat to dive at Les Davis and anchors in 25 feet of water.

I was under the assumption that large, motorized boats could not come inside and anchor in the no wake zone the city had set up. I am trying to find information about boating rules for Puget Sound but I am coming up empty. Does anyone know where I can find specific information, including rules about divers in the water, the distance boats must keep, and any other general rules that would be good to know?
