Colin,

All of these would typically be involved if the wave was 30 feet high, but it was a trick question.  The wave was nearly 30 feet.  The lack of sufficient height, or highnosity as it is sometimes called, would cancel out the torsional aspects, leading to a loss of various things.  However, full marks for mentioning "a bolt integrity occasion".  It's the snow.

Hugh.
