Lake Emergency?

The last case of tubing injuries on Lake Winnipesaukee was when the operator made a sharp turn at speed and whipped the riders into docked boats!

Wow there's an awful lot of assumptions going on here. I hope the injured 17 year old is doing OK.

I echo Cobalt's post. I have a newer model Four Winns H230 and I can keep it on plane slightly below 20 mph. When I tow tubers, I try to keep my speed at 20 mph. Point is, boats can be on plane at 20 mph.
