It looks like it even bulged the pressure hull aft of the impact point
(under the walkway).
I'm having a hard time understanding why the damage appears to be on the
port side- I would have expected either the whole bow or the underside
of the bow....unless she was keeling over in a very tight turn when she
hit whatever she hit; and that doesn't make any sense either because a
turn that would keel her over that direction would be toward the object
she collided with, instead of away from it. Am I correct in assuming
that the sail would point toward the inside of the turn?
