A friend of the forum and I were talking regarding the last few posts and I thought this response was right on the money.
El probably thinks a boat test can be evidence of a boat's planing ability. However,boat test show speed and time to plane, they Do Not determine a boat's ability to Remain on plane. Big difference. Many boats will plane at around 20 mph or so, but will fall off plane due to the lack of increased thrust. I can be on plane at around 16 mph, but I can't remain on plane at that speed.
