"Most recreational boating fatalities are the result of a fall overboard or a capsize caused by inexperience, inattention or inappropriate behavior, Johnson says."
Yep, sounds like speed limit is having a major effect according to the comments above... Inexperience, inattention and inappropriate behavior are mentioned but nothing about speed. Although I am sure the "pro" people will attest the by mentioning "inappropriate" it is automatically speed-related...
