These boats are slow hulls. My 24 El Pescador gets shallow enough for me and I can eat up bay chop better than most boats. I am never in a hurry. I would say my cruising speed is 20 give or take a few. Boat tops out about 42 WOT. It works out well for my purposes. I will also take it in the Gulf and dont get beat up. I have been on cats in the gulf and needed a mouth piece to keep my teeth from chipping.

The only hull that I have found that lets you play well in both worlds, chop - offshore, & crazy skinny is the C25 Mowdy Cat. There is a reason you see tons of them in & around POC. I love mine. Now I can let my boys drive w/o the concerns I had with my T/V.
My only concern now is when I finally stick the Mowdy it may require a helicopter to get it out. Drafts in 10" but will run through super skinny water.

A kill switch would have saved both..

How would the operator with a kill switch have saved Kali? Was he thrown as well?
I'm in favor of kill switches. Always required in the tournament's I've fished since the early 90s. That and always having a life jacket on while big motor is running have instilled some very good habits in me to this day. It's second nature like wearing a seatbelt in the truck.
