And just WHY do you need to run a small boat like that at those speeds ? It's just stupid and our waterways are over-run by bass-holes that over-power their little boats, endangering themselves and everyone around them...just juvenile,inconsiderate and buffoonery at the highest level.

While that may be the case in some situations, I don't see where they were doing anything they weren't supposed to be doing or anything out of the ordinary for a bass tournament.
Operating the boat at a safe distance from the boat ahead, wearing the proper life saving apparatus, and using the kill switch. Equipment failure is the cause, not operator error.

Seems like instituting a 40 or 50 mph speed limit for these tournaments could cut down on these accidents.

I assume you live in Tickfaw...
Is it ok for big Cigarette boats to run fast..?
Ever driven a bass boat...? You would understand...
My Bass Cat is 20 feet long, wouldn't exactly call it a small boat...
I can't even count the number of bass tournaments I've fished, and I have never seen one accident like that...
Besides, that accident was caused by mechanical failure, not the rate of speed they were going.. Even if they were going 40 or 50, probably the same would've happened...
