    		I did a quick search, and found the "spirit of austailia" at 319.63 mph, and the cargo ship of PCE lines at 70 knots loaded with 20 forty foot containers, and 100 mph empty.I didn't see anything about braking.

    		Is there not a list of braking distances in water somewhere like the ones you see for road vehicles?
