It would hurt, I assure you, if you jumped over the side at that speed. You could hurt yourself pretty bad, actually, if you didn't hit the water right.
Ahhhhh. I tried the speedo in the truck on the way to the dock. That's why there's also an elevation change. It trimmed out at something like 33 wide open. We cruised around easily at 25 which is a nice pace for our river. No one passed me aside from 2 jet skis. Lol. Plenty fast enough for me and the whole evening only hit me for 5 gallons of fuel. Pretty happy about that.
