A maneuver like this puts a lot of water molecules into contact with the hull which can lead to rapid disintegration of the ship.

In the sense that it was in the water when it did the maneuver, yes it is in contact with a lot of water molecules. Water is not compressible, so it is in contact with roughly the same amount that it always is.  They're dissolving because the Navy and a new contractor built them on the cheap.

Obviously skidding around like that is gonna put a lot of wear and tear on the boat tires. From the water molecules scraping against them.

They'd get a much sharper exit if they leaned on the nitrous halfway though. Wtf are they teaching boat drivers these days? fe: Maybe a more sane alternative to global thermonuclear war would be capital ship drifting races. tight aspirations has a new favorite as of 20:50 on May 18, 2016 |

It's great seeing a naval architect's reaction to that sort of thing. Hint: It isn't good for the ship! Pretty much the only way you can achieve something like this is to run one of the ship's propellers in reverse. When that happens there is a ridiculous amount of strain on all the propeller shafts, which bends them out of alignment. Realigning them requires half a year in a drydock. Not to mention the fact that the ships were never designed to take the strains of the propellers acting against each other, and that the water flow becomes horrendously turbulent which will cause even more cavitation and wreck the propellers. It does look very cool, though.

Umm.. no? That's just a normal high speed turn. They are going fast and turn the rudder all the way in one direction. The only time they ever reverse one shaft against the other is for doing very tight low speed maneuvers at the dock, and there really isn't any strain involved. At high speed the drag from the reversed propeller would cause the ship to slow down really fast, not turn really fast and sharp.

Also known as 'club hauling'. I know they do it in Battleship and Pirates of the Caribbean. I'm guessing doing it in real life, with a 40,000t vessel traveling at 33+kts would probably just wrench the bow off from the strain

The guy going on about melting hulls in response to that frigate gif linked to the LCS debacle as his justification, ignoring that's it's an entirely different type and class of ship, built from different materials operated by a different country. Here's a old boat that miraculously hasn't disintegrated due to contact with water molecules.  Almirante Grau. Supposedly the last gun based cruiser in operation. Laid down in 1939! for the Netherlands navy, just in time for the German invasion. Finally finished 14 years later and sold to the Peruvian navy in 1973 who still operate it.

One of the stupider things about the LCS hull corrosion issue is that the Australian ferry company building them has tried to blame the Navy for causing the corrosion. "Manufacturer's warranty void if ship is placed in water."
