You can legally operate your vessel at greater than no-wake speed in open waters, away from defined no-wake zones, and as long as you are following the rules and regulations set forth by the local authority or waterway management. It's important to always be aware of your surroundings, other vessels, and wildlife when operating at higher speeds.
The legal operating speed for a vessel between sunset and sunrise is typically governed by local regulations or the rules of the waterway. In general, vessels are often required to operate at a safe speed that allows them to stop or take necessary action to avoid a collision. It's important to follow the specific regulations of the area where you are operating the vessel.
If you are operating a motorboat and your motorboat is being overtaken by a sailboat, you should maintain present course and speed. The vessel that is overtaking another vessel is the give-way vessel, regardless of whether it is a sailing vessel or a power-driven vessel. The vessel being overtaken is always the stand-on vessel.

When two power driven vessels are meeting or crossing, the vessel that is to the starboard (right) is the stand on vessel. The stand-on (privileged) is to maintain course and speed. Please refer to the link below on the "Stand on" vessel.
