Personally I feel confident enough in my boating skills that I can and do handle a boat traveling over 45mph well. I follow 150' rules, NWZ, and noise laws and do not endanger the lives of swimmers or other boaters.
First of all the poll on the forum means nothing in terms of any sort of real info. I think we all know that.

So lets see you feel perfectly confident traveling at 146.6 fps? You can close the 150 gap in the blink of an eye. In less than 10 seconds you have traveled .25 miles. You never look anywhere but straight ahead expect maybe when you are checking your speed, talking to the person behind you or whatever. You superhuman eye sight allows to see anything in the water. Hmmmm you are an amazing human.

I have in early spring hit a variety of junk in the lake. Traveling as slow as 30 MPH and looking for debris I can still come on it too fast to avoid. Not a doubt in my mind that at 3X plus that speed you can see a swimmer in the water. Get real. Oh and I know those boats that flipped where taking low speed turns oh but wait the must not have upgraded to your steering system.

You must be the reincarnation of Baja Boob the man who could handle it all.
