I doubt it was that fast to be honest, It was trimmed out quite away, possibly a little bit to much. Trimmed level it was doing about 6400, trimmed to where I normally trim it it was doing 6800 but I could still feel the water hitting the boat under my arse so as it was nice and flat I just kept trimming till I couldn't feel the water under me any more and that was 7200.
