First line was my thought when posting this.
My second line was somewhat specific to a particular speedo that came to mind, in that it had some quirky tendencies at times.

I hate to admit it but I think I have more fun in my 19' Bayliner Trophy CC that I slapped a 200 Optimax and hydraulic steering on than I do in my Fountain. I think I have a total of 6K invested in it, it runs almost 60 on GPS, it sips gas, and I rinse it out with a hose when it gets dirty. ****, I just spent more than 3k for new canvas on my Fountain. I also have to admit that after crawling all over this thing and rerigging it, it is built like a damn tank. It's a 1996 boat and not a crack in it anywhere.

I wouldn't want to build it but if you got it for a reasonable number I think it would be funny blowing the doors off people around me from North Jersey who all lie about how fast there boats go. This thing would run past a good number of them and how embarrassing it would be when they figure out its a Byliner. Ha. Plus as stated earlier you have to start somewhere and at least you'd be on the water having fun.
