I never look at it as "forced". It's my *choice* if I buy a boat that is slow. I see it opposite as you do, or at least how you stated it. If I do 8 knots in an 8 knot boat, I won't feel forced. I'll feel I got just what I asked for. I'm guessing you're saying that if you had, say a 24' Carolina Skiff with a 150hp, capable of 40+ knots, you wouldn't spend much time cruising at 8 knots. More likely you'd cruise at @25. Me too. Hey! I ended up agreeing with you! --Vic At least on the CS, you'd have the choice. |
