It goes a blistering 25MPH with me and my wife. I'm sure the more passengers I add will reduce the speed dramatically. 
My kids are giving me a hard time but they don't come up enough so it's about me and my wife's enjoyment now.
I told them if they want to water ski they will have to rent their own boat.
I think I can still pull the grand kids around on a tube, I hope!  |
I know I'm going to catch crap because of this but the day I feel compelled to trade my 26' bowrider in for a toon is the day I may stop boating. We use a toon down in FL in a boat club and they're ok but it's a serious step down from my Four Winns.
My best analogy is the day I can't climb the hills on Long Island on my bike is the day I quit cycling. I will NOT get one of damn electric assist bikes!
