Alcohol is a big factor but I view it differently. Passing too close to another boat, or cutting them off, or poor docking are a problem. Boating when drunk is criminal.
Speed simply isn't a safety factor IMO.

Speed simply isn't a safety factor because the 45/30 limit is working. Hence the support by 6 marinas and the many organizations quoted earlier.
45 MPH + alcohol = very bad
75 MPH + alcohol = very bad X factor of 10
