This is just getting silly!
When most of "us" are using the term speeding "boat", we are referring to all high-speed water vessels, including PWC. We're just not singling out PWC, any more than we are singling out any other type of speeding "boat". After all the speed limit will limit the speed of all "boats".
I can't see that anyone here is picking on any particular kind of boat - other than the opponents to 162; who have singled out canoes and kayaks.
