Re: Technical question for me
Yachting Monthly took a perfectly good sailboat, bashed a pretty good hole in the side and tested various methods of stopping the water. Fothering actually did a pretty good job. You can see the whole video here. Very interesting.

After they finished with this they step by step destroyed the boat with various tests, finishing up with a demo of what happens when you get a propane leak.
