Definitely feels up over the top of the water, over the waves, level and
obviously steering easily at the high speed. So supposing that this is planing.
--------------------------------------
Could argue all day and for many days about what is and what is not
planing. Some define it as just going really fast.
However it is best just to not use the word as it does not add anything
to the discussion, just generates lots of heat and no light.
So just talk about boatspeed, preferably in knots and everyone will know
what you are talking about.
