I feel just the opposite. I really don't drink regularly but I would feel 10X safer operating a boat after drinking than a car. Things just don't happen that fast on the water. At the slow speeds most boats travel reaction times can be pretty slow and still not hit anyting. Not to say either is a good idea.....
