The 20 footer they took out to fish has a top speed of 60MPH. Authorities said life jackets would have helped the men survive.

More interesting, Nebraska has an average of 5 deaths per year on it's lakes and have no pending legislation that links speed to safety.

Compare that to the safety record of NH.
