As claustrophobic as I am, I would hit the surface before the bow broke.

I am a Plankowner of CG-73 USS Port Royal. When we pulled into Savannah for our commissioning ceremony the mayor had a band playing "In the Navy" by the Village people on the pier.

That's a hell of a ship to be a plankowner

I've been on carriers doing close to 40 knots.

How do they secure the aircraft on the carriers if they are heading into rough seas? some of those look like they are 10 feet or so from falling off.

As in hydroplane up out of the water? Carriers don't really do that. They'll squat a bit and throw up a hell of a rooster tail. And close to 40 knots is not top speed.
Lincoln at high speed

I know the faster my CG went the more the ship lifted up out of water.

Less tonnage, smaller size, different hull, etc. Probably pretty cool cooking along at 25 knots or so.

I figured my mental math was close for speed/weight
Apparently not.
