A few years ago I was bringing a 60 Pred. to Florida with the owner (who only knew WOT). Leaving Hilton Head I told him to keep it about 1800 and we'll make Ft. Pierce by about 7PM. As soon as we were out of the marina down went the throttles. We made great time doing 36 kts. Of course after we had to stop at Canaveral for fuel we still hit Ft. Pierce at 7PM. We just burned a few hundred extra gallons.
