It'd probably do fairly well. I haven't really had the GPS out to measure the speed... but next season I'll have to measure the speed and such with my handheld GPS.

I see that the portaboat will plane with a 4hp engine. Is that with 2 people & gear? How fast can it run in moderate conditions, less than 1' chop, with 2 people plus gear?

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
