These ideas about night-riding technology are pretty interesting ideas, and maybe in the future some of them will become affordable. But I have to worry about whether there is just a fundamental problem with driving at night on a lake at a speedy clip. It's open water, there will always be risks from floating & submerged objects, unlit boats, or boats driven by unwise 'captains'. To me, safety is directly related to speed and visiability conditions.... high tech devices might promise to increase safety, but slowing down is always going to decrease risks out there (and it's cheap!)
