Please don't go down the speed limit rat hole. This thread will get moved and banned.

4Fun, I disagree with your assessment of .11 BAC. First, the level was higher than .11 likely it was .15. Some people may be capable at that level in car with ideal circumstances. But this was boat not a car, it was dark, boats don't have headlights. There are no lanes, boats can come from any direction. Even the most experienced recreational boater has 1/10 the experience driving a boat as driving a car. You can't really use the same scale. In my opinion driving a boat, at planning speed, at night and at .15 BAC is reckless.
