I spent the last week in Sweden and was supposed to do a yacht race, but for various reasons we retired so had a few days to spare.
The boat owner also races a power boat and after spending a couple of days getting it ready for the first race of the season, we went out last evening. Topped out at 64 knots, and when we "slowed down" for small waves we were still doing over 50.
I think I will stick with sails for the most part but a blast in a boat like that was sure a lot of fun!
