I'm almost exactly 20 miles to the Kanawha River.  Seems a bit shallow 
for a sub...  I was wrong... we're about 30-35 miles to the Ohio.

Actually, a vessel I would love to have is the Navy MK V.  The newer 
versions have foam and carbon-fiber hulls.  Nearly unsinkable, and good 
for something like 50+ kts, which is hauling hiney for an 80' vessel.

Interestingly, it appears the vessel's draft is a fairly closely guarded 
secret.  I suspect it is VERY shallow.
