That's my point exactly haha.

If the Zerooff is set to 11 the boat is going to go 11mph in reference to the satellites, it doesn't care about wind or current so it's not going to change the readout or cause the boat to not get to speed.
If the boat is not reaching speed it's a mechanical or electrical issue not a wind or current issue.

(that's of course assuming you aren't going straight up a raging river that is pushing back at you so hard that the boat doesn't have the power to overcome it and get to gps speed)

I suppose if you went from an area of no current or no wind and then into an area with current or wind your speed would fluctuate a bit until the zero-off catches up to the change, but that's not what repomannv was talking about I don't think. He's talking about setting the cruise at 14 and the boat goes 11, that's a mechanical or electrical issue and not a wind or current issue (again unless we're talking about extreme currents like tides)
