    Mike;
    I think that any structure that fails is not strong enough. If the boat had
    been in the water 30 more minuets I think the keel would have dropped off
    and she would have sunk. More then that, other boats did survive the storm
    with less significant damage. All in all I wasn’t too unhappy to be on the
    deck of something larger for the next storm.
    Bob
