we have a sweetwater 21ft with a 90 etec, 2 pontoons. Had no problems with pulling the kids on tube/kneeboard or skis. Its just when they get older they want to go faster. When pulling adults they seem to think the speed is ok. Around 20 - 25mph. Word of advise is to get the vinyl flooring instead of the rug as it is easier to dry and clean. Wish I had taken that option

You know it's all up to what you want to do on the water ? For me at my age,( 66yrs ) it's all about easy in easy out at the ramp, low maintenance, good fuel usage, comfort and just being able to Chill Out and watch the show everyone else puts on. Just enjoy and go have fun.
