Any definition of "excessive speed" would include a speed that is unsafe in the prevailing conditions. When people start bouncing out of the boat you are using "excessive speed" for the prevailing conditions.

I believe the girl was thrown out out the bow rider after the skier fell , the driver cut the wheel all the way without slowing down, tossing the girl from the bow and into the prop. We've all seen this done on the lake, definitely driver negligence.
