keel load, dynamics

looking for comments on current standards for keel loads:
- from grounding,
- from slamming (falling off a wave),

especially in light of the keels falling off high performance racers such as the last Sydney-Hobart. Any suggestions for updating criteria- hopefully quantitative comments, such as deceleration times should be (x) based on experimental or modeled data.

Anyone have any current data on this?
