Thanks Rusty:
The getting away from weather is an important benefit of speed. Listening to a skilled sport fisherman and boat builder, Paul Mann, talk about running in heavy weather - he was the first to call me blow boater, so I take it as a bit of a compliment I became aware of how much there is to learn there. Think a thread on heavy weather handling - very different on a high power boat than on a `blown' boat - could be a good thing. Look guys, I meant no disrespect when I brought the misspelling to spare's attention, although maybe I should have done it off list. Fact is, in my circles constructive criticism is an act of friendship, and that's how it was intended. Careless spelling CAN stunt a career when you head to the top office. As to that other thread, unless you're indulging cronyism you will note that spider started it and there was no way I would back off and give him satisfaction. Finally, have nothing against speed, love it in fact, but outside the good points made by Rusty, think efficiency and reliability far more important, even for fisherman, and especially for offshore >20 NM fisherman.
