It's funny that they dropped the boat at the end and the bow area was really demolished. IIRC, the boat only dropped about 30 to 40 feet and therefore could not have been going more than 20-25 MPH when it hit the ground. If hitting a blunt surface at 25 MPH (with no engines attached) could do that much damage, it's quite possible that a point load at the same speed could cut into the boat as deeply as it did, especially if the boat in question was built differently (and had engines). They were way off base on that one.
