Here's the way I look at it...
1) it does look cool!
2) boats that do 70+mph have to go 1 - 69 first... and they still work through those speeds.
3) If you're not going 70+, what does it matter now? it still looks cool.
4) Your not dead so, someday your boat might just go 70+... be ahead of the curve.
5) did I say it looks cool!
6) if you have the resources... why would you NOT add a nosecone?
... and that's a balanced and objective synopsis.
