Thanks for the clarification Huck, in boating circles we call that hull speed. Either put too big an engine on the boat or try to run a sail boat before the wind with too much sail up and the hull will start to vibrate, theoretically it will vibrate apart. I've only heard a sailing hull humm once, in a nightime squall at the mouth of the Bay od Fundy. Really wild.
