Might be useful when swimming the gauntlet on the HudsonUnless it’s different up-river, based on my experiences with Hudson river swims once on a MIMS relay, once as a MIMS solo and once as a MIMS observer; I have never seen a need for an escort or safety boat to go that fast. There were a lot of pleasure boats and jet skis zipping up and down the river while we swam.
If you want to see a high speed chase, go see the new Die Hard or rent the original Gone in 60 seconds. If you want a safe escorted swim keep your escort boat close and slow.
