Fascinating. I'd like to learn more - can you point me at any web
sites? I can't find anything much over 25kts.


==========================================

We have a ferry service running between here and Key West that uses
large, high speed catamarans. They can run at 40 kts or so and are
quite spectacular to watch at close range.

What's even more impressive is seeing one of those come over the horizon and
doing a double-take at their closing rate if you're on a recip course.

Been there, done that.
