Default Not for Doug-video of SAILING boat

This is not a post for Doug, who owns a powerboat.

Here's another clip of Heart of Gold topping 7 knots and having a
blast....

Bart, you can really see the mylar mildew in this clip! Can't wait for
nice new crisp sails.

Doing better than 7 knots in the above clip.

Is that video speeded up or something?

If not, then your boat is damn fast.

Can it exceed traditional hull speed when in semi-planing mode?

You really did well buying that boat. I can't wait to go out for a sail on
it.

Hot damn!

Sadly, we didn't have enough wind for semi-planing. But we were
semi-semi planing which is actually pretty darn fast. It sounds
windy...but I was also breathing heavy trying to hold onto the camera,
the boat and a 1 lb bag of peanut MM's.
It was rough.
