My freshwater Shark always seemed a little faster than my saltwater Shark.
They were different boats, but both Hinterhoellers only 35 numbers apart.
Salt water felt just a little draggier, as a purely subjective opinion.

A friend of mine with the same boat (37+) is sailing the Panama area. He posted
a pretty respectable SOG and I wondered what the math is fresh vs salt water.
Has anyone done that math already? The boat should have less wetted surface but
shorter water line length and salt water is denser so more
