Well lets see, Bahamas bound in a stiff 20 knot wind gusting over 6-8ft swells. A two million dollar 58’ sport fish would make 19 knots, a speed considered great!
How about a 45ft Center Console with twin 480HP Yanmar deisels clipping around @ 73mph
Well, truthfully I would much rather be doing 34 knots riding in one of these (while watching satellite tv on my 60 inch flat screen in my air conditioned cabin) than getting tossed around in that center console...

and 34 knots is not even all that fast in 60 foot plus convertables these days... and 6-8 foot swells is like a duck pond to a 60 footer...
