                        Trolling speed
                        “Trolling” is the lowest maneuvering speed. You are applying little or no throttle. The water-
                        craft is down in the water, and there is no wake.
                        Sub-planing speed
                        “Sub-planing” is a medium speed. The bow of the watercraft is slightly up from the water sur-
                        face, but you are still traveling through the water. There is a wake.
                        Planing speed
                        “Planing” is a faster speed. The watercraft is more level and is skimming on top of the water.
