um, isn't that what he said in the first place? 

Anyone in good shape can destroy a mirage drive, it has limits.

... Once you hit hull speed extra effort with paddle, or peddle, pretty much only goes into creating a larger bow wave.

Hull speed formula (length is in feet, speed is in knots): v = 1.34√L

Thanks. Great explanation! I've felt it on my Revo13. Somewhere between 4.5kts and 5.0 kts the mirage drive seems to lose effectiveness. Luckily I can't keep up a 5kts pace anyway.

I've been to every city in Mexico. I came across an unclaimed piece of meat in Baja, turned out to be Rosie. I guessed he picked a knife fight with somebody better. Found one of your passports to Sumatra, I missed you by about a week at Fiji. But, I knew you wouldn't miss the fifty year storm, Bodhi.
