unless that speed boat goes very early in the morning, I'd be too scared to risk going in a small boat between Lombok and Bali - the seas can be huge. I know the internal airlines can also be dodgy but it's over pretty quickly :)
Also be aware that the last public ferry from Bangsal leaves around 2pm, so best to plan to fly over earlier in the day.
Airport to Bangsal is approx 1 hour.
