Craig, et al -
In you best guess estimate ... assuming speed was "fast" what would be affect
of an the impact with a "sit-on-top" kayak have on the hull of a "bayliner" ?
Visible damage? Structural damage?
 
Inquiring minds and all that...

This is an update to the story. The boy remains in critical condition. No
one knows exactly what happened. There is now a $1000 reward for information
leading to the solution of the mystery. This link gives the name of the
victim along with a photo and a photo of his kayak (a small SOT):
