i can promise you that 470 wont get you past 55. on radar or gps.

and about the v-20 chine walking, it would probably ride like a checkmate or a baja (if im thinking of the older 80's v hull ski boats) where was it feels like the front end is hanging out there and it will rock but not too bad. not if the weight dist is all messed up then who knows. maybe a up and a hard roll to the right.
