 "donut" variable
Do to the "donut" variable that determine your boat speeds, Please include actual weight as opposed to people. Since one boat may say " with me and 6 gals. of gas" in one instance(200lbs) is not the same as me and 6 gallons of gas(400lbs) in another boat. too keep all informed, a size medium guy, 150lbs does not = a 3-5XL guy at say 350+lbs. So from now on, let's use total weight as opposed to total people.

 Re: "donut" variable
I'm not going to laugh at this because you are still a douchebag. Me - 280, 6 gallons of gas, 12 count box of Krispy Kremes, 27-29 mph. Keep in mind I am dragging ice runners and have a hook, I run neck in neck with Radikkle's PD rig. In a 2 mile side by side run, he gained about 50 ft. on me.
