for this and from the best I can tell, it is too much for  45G as well.


Actually 45G might work for you. It'll handle  about 19 square feet @ 100 MPH 
for one-hundred feet. Of course a beefier  setup would be to use 55G - it'll 
handle about 23 sq.ft.
 
    What a predicament. Having a blank sheet of paper  with a cliff over 
saltwater. I wish I had that problem!!
