came real close to doing that in my tin boat in Barnstable many years ago. Going too fast into an strong outgoing tide with a real strong wind in my face. Hit the wave, wind hit bottom of boat, and next thing I'm looking at the floorboard.

I was trying to get back into harbor as I should not have been out in the main channel with that wind.

. Scared the living crap out of me. You only need to do that once to make you a much smarter boater.
