The safest way to avoid risk in a boat at night is??? Don't boat at night. Duh.
If one must boat at night (we sure do), make sure someone can see YOU. That means having all your nav lights in good shape and glowing. PLUS//PLUS Have a powerful handheld spotlight plugged in and handy to the driver to deliver a severe blinding flash in the eyes of someone bearing down on your boat if you suspect a problem coming.
Running WOT or at speed at night is just dumb. Even on a crystal clear, moon-lit night in open water in good weather, an operator cannot see low profile hazards, like submerged logs and disabled boats.
Reduce your risk and SLOW WAY Down at night. Who knows? You might even enjoy a Slow Ride,,, Take It Easy,,,
