well i had a nice reply all typed up, but something happened... anyway, the bottom line is boats are horribly slow, no matter how fast you think you are going... it always seems like you are giong 2x faster than you really are... i get asked all teh time how fast we are going when i take people out, and they are a little shocked when i tell them "about 40"...
