If this helps, here is an Eagletree of my Villain EX on a hard run. After the pack has dumped, there being no airflow through the hull, the pack temps usually around 115F. That being around a 10 min runtime, or 6C average discharge, which is quite a bit. They are still preforming like day one though, discharging over 2250mah. I would say it clips along the water at up to 22mph? Give or take 2mph.

IMO, boats are a good use for A123's... as there is not much "peaking" in currents, more of a constant current relatively, so you can design a setup around your discharge currents and calculate your voltage drop, and adjust your setup accordingly.

EDIT: OOPS, almost forgot the eagletree graph.
