Well, lets make some assumptions here.....first, lets assume the boat FALLS the total vertical distance of the height of the wave crest (100 ft). And, lets assume the take off angle was +45 degrees. With this in mind, the horizontal distance the boat would travel at a 60 MPH vault would be approx. 317.659 feet...not adjusting for center of mass...

Please check the calculations here. They sound a bit skewed to me.:)
