Are your drive showers polished or satin? :D

PS. I always run from the back to the front of my boat with GPS in hand while at top speed for that extra mph. Its the cheapest improvment i have been able to make.

THANKS, EXACTLY!
A GPS READS (COURSE OVER GROUND) BUT THAT 70MPH IS FROM A WATER-PRESSURE SPEEDO, NOT GPS...SINCE YOU ARE NOT MOVING, THE GPS WILL READ ZERO...BUT CURRENT CANNOT CHANGE GPS READINGS, IT CAN ONLY SLOW THE VEHICLE DOWN SO YOU GET A LOWER GPS READING. AIR SPEED AND GROUND SPEED ARE THE SAME, A MILE PER HOUR IS EXACTLY THAT, BUT AIR SPEED MEASURED WITH PRESSURE AND AFFECTED BY HEADWIND OR TAILWIND WILL REGISTER DIFFERENT THAN GPS SPEED, SINCE GPS IS ACCURATE.

Do you regularly check your GPS for max speed?

What is the higest speed you've ever registered on your boats GPS?

How fast is your boat?
