Subtracting 150' legal distance from each shore (to include boulders, wooden rafts, and that "permanent" bright red warning float), that "pinch-point" at Keewaydin Point is very tight for a 17-ton vessel to be traveling at such an inhumane speed--made even worse when two such craft are passing each other.

It sounds to me like someone has been watching a few too many Dukes of Hazard re-runs…
I doubt highly that a 40k lb vessel launched over the dock with its death machine props shearing the top off the boat as it flew through the air…
