The "covered" in the excerpt certainly refers to vessels under the jurisdiction of this law. The definition of which vessels are covered is not quoted, however. And it does NOT say 115 horsepower. It says 115 POUNDS OF THRUST. That would include some fairly small outboards.
You are also allowed to remove the kill cord (my term) if you are below planing speed, such as trolling or while docking or undocking. That allows you to leave the helm to attach lines or bumpers, etc.
