I pull up in another post that I was looking at a 2014 PA 14 with the Mirage Drive I forgot to ask about speed. Lol I know it’s subjective but what are you guys getting for cruising speed?

I have used a 2019 hobie pa14 for 6 years a lot. Here is what I learned. Also I mention the year because pre 2019 has a different hull design, that some say was faster.
I can maintain 2.5 – 3mph for a hour no problem not stopping.
I top out at about 4.5mph that I can sustain for about 5-10 minutes.
Maintaining 1.5 to 2mph I can do all day without an issue.
With a motorguide xi3 at full power I can hold about 4.3mph for 16 hours.

The speed of a vessel is definitely not subjective.
