I've done the exact same query as Rocky and found that I go about 3 mph effortlessly in ideal conditions. That is perfect for what I do. I also have tried out other Hobies and know they are faster. But I don't really want the extra speed for less stability, room, ease of use etc.. The advanture is way too long and skinny for my fishing needs. I know they are also used for fishing, but they aren't setup right for me. I can bring six rods (I actually have room for nine rods) and put them in the horizontal storage holders and they are completely out of my way.
I have also seen vids of PAs flipping, but it happens more often in the ocean, on the smaller PAs (12 footers) and on some of the older molders as Hobie added a more stabilizing rudder to the PAs to reduce rollovers. But there is no doubt, they can and do flip, I'm just not worried about it given my situation.
