How boring where is the enjoyment in that type of boating

Oh if only!

A bit boring pummelling along at speed getting bounced around in ones seat. Fun for a brief novelty run but after that rather dull. Slick looking shape though. Would make a nice static model boat.

It's a good point; high speed is invariably high discomfort, so enjoyment is finding the highest speed that's also comfy. And it's important (to me) to have a destination worth the effort. To me, blasting around for the heck of it is pointless, just as displacement cruising that, for me, feels life draining away! Maybe I'll mature one day...

Now this seems different http://www.flixxy.com/worlds-fastest-water-car.htm if not also pointless after the initial novelty effect wears off.

On the contrary. The perfect yacht tender.
