On one that's attacking a boat, especially the boat on which the would-be backstabber is on? I'd go with no. I can't see how that's going to give anything like the bonus of knifing an unwitting victim from a stealthy approach would give.Peter Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14246000382321978462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7197491578009817539.post-21994142729121985422021-03-23T12:40:51.671-07:002021-03-23T12:40:51.671-07:00Obviously my comment was the correct answer becaus...Obviously my comment was the correct answer because it is the only one in bold and a larger font.
