Unhappy

I hear ya, and to each his own, I've been over 100mph in a boat with a 2cylinder merc (a bit modified & running avgas!) The hull weighed just over 100lbs. I like going fast too, at least I used to....

Maybe I'm just getting old :-(

I love streching out my F150 Yamaha. It is great flying over smooth water at 48-50mph. That is really about all it has, still on spinning around 5300 rpm. Boat rides real good that fast. We normally cruise thru big chop at around 35 just to stay on top of the waves. Got into some bigger wind blown rollers yesterday in Pensacola Bay. They where running 3-4 ft and I had to go real slow due to the wife being with us. That was a long, bumpy ride. Once I dropped her off we took our V on a faced pace trip up Bayou Texar, wide open. It is a great feeling being trimmed up and flying.
