    Blue water. Give her a gut full and if she comes home she is a blue water boat.

    One of my 36 footers hit a sunken steel barge at hull speed on the very sharp corner of the barge, hitting the boat 6 inches off the centreline foreward , no dammage. You are not going to get a more concentrated hit than that.
