Those extra rpm's make a difference
when being hit head-on by waves, or even chop. The added ability
to accelerate faster back up to hull speed will make your average
speed over time faster, even though you won't be exceeding hull
speed. How fast you recover after a wave slows you down can make
quite a difference in how soon you get where you are going. That
is why it never hurts to have a few more horsepower. Reaching hull
speed in calm flat water is not the goal. Most boats that are
considered a bit underpowered have no trouble reaching hull speed
when there is no opposition. Of course, going slower than hull
speed in those conditions will generally be more comfortable if
that is your priority.
