[QUOTE="PATRIOT, post: 360049, member: 8891"] I guess speed is okay to a degree if you put it into perspective. I run on a lake that's 63 miles long with a 15HP 2-stroke 14ft Lowe @22mph. Bass boats and larger go around me going twice as fast, let's say @44mph. From any point 2.2 miles from the dock, they get there in 3 mins and I get there in 6 mins. I'm not sure the increased initial investment, maintenance and fuel consumption (I'm at 8 mpg) is really worth the 3 mins they use still getting out of their boat when I arrive, is worth it. Isn't water about the most inefficient medium for speed anyway? All boats are equal in a "No Wake" zone. [/QUOTE]
