Trikepilot Social

this may be unanswerable, but here goes, i welcome someone smarter than me (that sure opens up the floodgates!) to explain the dynamics of a 900# trike slamming into water at 40-50mph and stopping in 5-10ft. likely survivable ? or are we just hoping to somehow 'walk' away from such an event. i have always believed that a non-float equipped trike is a very chancy vehicle to fly over water, simply due to the smooth landing we all kid ourselves would ensue, in a forced  landing ,.(unlikely) .the very nature of a long -distance trike, big motor, fast wing, big fuel load, plus equipment all adds up to a fairlyhigh landing speed. add to this the depth perception problem if the surface is smooth, (unlikely at sea) or waves, they aren't always wind driven, you would have to try to set down parallel to the crests in the trough, possibly crosswind, hard to do  under the stress level. i'm hoping that  some  good can come from the latest tragedy, at least the brave flyers that attempt these adventures may have more info to use to tip the scales in their favor, hugs and kisses, monty    ps my wife asked if i'd rather have sex or fly my trike, i asked her  " what's the weather like " ?   i must be getting old!  there was a time when.............
