The accident was in Pandusky Ohio, so I don't think the Winni speed limit pertains to it
I do know that criminal charges were being considered. Law Enforcement thinks that Lake was driving the boat, not the deceased. So they basically said he lied, and he also did not have a boater safety card.
But here's a case where a 21' boat plows into a 40' Formula that had the right of way. One boat (the Formula) was doing 25 mph, the offending 21' boat was doing 30 mph. This came from a later article.
All craft, large and small, can be dangerous if driven that way, at any speed.
