Science & Mathematics - 5 June 2006

This isn't my homework, I'm just curious.
Alright let's say you're going in a motorboat at 60 mph, and you take a turn at a right angle, there is one person in the boat, weighing 150 pounds, the current is moving at 5 mph. My question: What happens to the person in the boat? Does the boat capsize, or is the person launched due to the forces at work here? I need help coming up with an equation for this problem, and figuring out all the variables. Can anyone help me?
