Testing the Performance of My DIY Boat

TLDRI tested my DIY boat and it performed well, but there are some issues I need to address. It handles wind well, but there is some steering drift. It reaches a speed of about 4 miles per hour at half throttle. The boat is stable and has a draft of 9 inches. Launching was a bit challenging due to the crooked launch, but overall, the boat is doing great.
