Kind of fun to go fast in a big boat. Took the Fast Ferry boat from
Barcelona to Majorca in 2001. 97 meters not feet and did 47 knots. And
the boat carries 300 cars and a few semi's amd 800 passengers at that speed.
. . in comfort. Had to slow to about 40 returning as there were some 10'
seas about. Jetdrive and 38,000 HP!


Yiu don't have to travel that far for a fast ferry...
