Someone mentioned he probably is not very good at being aware of his surroundings. That sounds right on to me. Whether in the car or on the water.

Being .11 is impared not incapable. If you make good choices sober you can still make them at .11 (Just a little harder, And not that I condone it...) It sounds like alcohol is not really the issue here just a series of bad decisions.
Except of course that if Long Lake had a speed limit he would have trailered his boat to a different lake.
