If someone comes into the dock, faster than the manuverability of the boat and crashes into it and injury resaults. Speed related accident...

If an operater takes for an example a 15' bowrider with a 45hp outboard and at WOTcuts the steering, causing the bow to dig in. The boat can flip over or through an occupant out causing injury. Speed related accident...

At night if somone was to come in to Rattlsnake Island and miss judge the location of the dock, crashing into rocks because they were traveling above visability and injury resulted. Speed related accidend.

All this without a posted speed limit WHO KNEW

Boat safe and boat smart, do not oporate beyond the capability of the boat or the pilot.
