Re: Pearson 30 atomic 4 optimal rpm at hull speed?

and you obviously haven't read the whole thread. I was running down the face of smooth 20ft rollers with a tail wind approaching 40 knots. My knot log read 12+ knots.
It's not all that hard to...

perhaps you can explain why i've been able to exceed hull speed in my Pearson 10M? Even hitting 12 Knots one day. 29' waterline.
