How fast are the Potters (maximum speed)? 2004-09-12
The theoretical displacement hull speed of a P15 is 4.6 knots, and for a P19 is 5.4 knots. However, Potters have hard chines and relatively flat bottoms, so can plane to speeds somewhat in excess of their theoretical hull speed under the right conditions. A detailed explanation of this is on Judy B.'s Web page at: http://blumhorst.com/potterpages//hullspeed.html
