I have one and love it. Mine goes 63mph with the stock pull start motor, I've tested it with a radar gun. I love it. I swear it's a rocket. Just kidding. Don't own one.
I saw one run the other day and took photos. The photos came out great because the boat was going so slow it was easy to track. It was being driven by a 12 year old boy and doing probably 10 mph. It would turn equally well both left and right, might have something to do with the 10 mph top speed. Unfortunately, after I took the photos the rod broke in the engine and the young fellow was really disappointed.

Here's a couple of photos. I enjoy taking pictures of model boats and the Dolphin qualifies as a model boat. IMO, the quality photos is better than the performance of the boat.
