Agree completely. Boat handling, knowing basic boating "rules of the road", are the real issues affecting safe boating on Winni. Some additional training would help.
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.
