These are not "jet boats" in any way and the V hulls did not hit 100mph back in that era..
The 41 Apache's were hitting mid 80's 90 - calm or rough water.
(A cat boat boat ( turbine engine) did the 103 mile course in 53 minutes averaging 145 MPH not too long ago)
45 minutes to do a 53 mile run @ 50 mph ??

Bimini is approx 55 miles from Ftl/Miami...the Apache Warpath ran 93-94 MPH in smooth waters, and could run 90 MPH in rough 6 foot seas.
