"DSK" blathered thusly:

Shucks any boat can exceed hull speed. The tricky part is, under what
conditions? Anyway the newer Tartans (3400, 3700, 4100, etc etc) are all
in the range of racer-cruisers, performance wise. D/Ls around ~200 and
SA/Ds around ~20, not slugs for sure.


Put a big enough diesel in it and, yes, it can. That's why you 'sail' your
motorboat, isn't it?
