I somewhat disagree. Measuring speed accurately in a vehicle is much easier than on a boat, and speed limits have been a much more predominant item in automobile law vs. boating law.

It should be fairly clear by now that the reality is you're not likely to find yourself in this scenario. You would pretty much have to be traveling near the speed of light before you are going to get a speed limit ticket.
