What defines acceleration in a boat?
 
Bubbles, what about surfing?

Never heard of the downhill slide...it's a sailing term.

I've also heard of boats "heaving" which they don't do either.

he never said "vast sailing experience", or experience with physics or
acceleration for that matter.

that which occurs on a
sailboard in high winds when one can go from zero
to thirty or more knots in about three to five seconds.

Could this be true? A sailboard gets to 30MPH faster than a Mustang or

Saab
Turbo? 0-30 in 3 sec is pretty fast.
