Obviously you guys know nothing about hydrodynamics, it is not only possible but highly probable, I'm gonna pick this one up and do some cat killing and maybe kill a couple of fountains just for sport.

Why is a ford exec running a boat with GM Motors???? doesn't have any faith in his own product?

Why would a Florida Broker selling a Detroit boat quote KPH ?
I do agree with your last point.

That'd be my guess to. If the Canadian coast guard timed it it would be in Kilometers per hour. There on the metric system . . atleast they were the last time i was up there on a ten day weekend

72 mph sounds just about right for that tank
