...at 35-40 knots. Watch [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?list=UUc36Cbub8hJ8wwc8xlPba2w&v=2_dBbb9-R50&feature=player_embedded#!"]New Zealand's new AC-72[/url] from her 1200 hp chase boat.

Sarge can only hit about 33 knots (38 mph), which seems pretty fast to me!

Hi Val! Long time! (?) Yup--I can probably stop a lot faster! (I can actually stop <i>too</i> fast, without trying.) I really don't think they sail her into the slip!

How are you??
