That's my thought too.
If one is doing coastal/inland boating, a fast boat to escape weather isn't necessary if one pays a bit of attention.
Life is easier avoiding flotsam, jetsam, kayakers, erratic sailboaters, and such at six knots rather than multiples of that speed. ... When I'm on a boat or ship, it's the voyage and not the port/anchorage that's most important.
