BIVOUAC is the natural bingo: 7 letters, 14 points base + 50 bonus = 64 total. V=4 and B=3, C=3 combine for strong value from an achievable rack combination.
FLASK is peak efficiency: 12 points from 5 tiles (2.4 pts/tile). F=4 and K=5 do nearly all the scoring — perfect for tight board positions.
HAMMOCK for the double K dream: H=4, M=3, M=3, K=5 gives 18 points from 7 letters. Uses both M tiles and the precious K for a high-value bingo.
