I have a boat and to no surprise it is overpowered. I have smacked into waves over the last 17 years that have caused myself and passengers to fly from our seats. The rule is go for the ignition key do not try to regain control if I fly out of the driver seat. I have jumped 100's of waves to the point my gimble had to be replaced. Mercruiser said this is extremely rare. My winshield is encapsulated by an aluminium frame that I have seen jump 2". My glass has never chipped or broken. I wonder if there are different grades of glass that can sustain more abuse. This may be the solution.
