That's the quote from the MP. 70 was the top number, and only if it wasn't fully fueled. And he did admit that the boats were heavy -- he brought that up, in fact.

So, I have no reason to believe that he was lying or exagerrating. Not that it matters much -- he can catch up to most boats, and the few he can't catch -- there's radio.
