This happens far too often, running too fast at night. You wonder why
no
one has ever, at least considered, putting some headlights on boats.
I have. My last design had adjustable headlights built right into the
hull... Didn't build it yet, but the design is solid...

A lot of the jetboats have lights built in to the bow. They are great for
docking, and maybe in an emergency run of the river, but headlights do not
work on the water. Maybe to pick up a large boat ahead of you, but the
water sucks up the light. I had to come back 10 miles at 5 mph do to a
boat problem and was dark as hell as came down the river. Not a whitewater
river, part of the Sacramento. And the hand held spot was good for checking
how far from the shore I was, and look at buoys, but that was all.
