thanks for posting those videos - I'll probably get #*&! for saying it but IMO 99% of the bass boats, cigar boats and other high power low 'V' boats (including bay boats) never look or seem safe to me. They might all be fine when its flat calm but in any type of chop its a different story.

I'm with you - I see no reason to overpower a boat but found it curious that there may only be state laws enforcing it. Frankly, I could give 2 craps if some idiot wants to drive like that and kill himself - but it does bother me when it impacts other people.

No different than driving on the road with a Aholes.
