Anybody know if this storm was well-predicted?
A fluke?
How would a Mac 26M fare in these situations?
If the boat isn't sinking, when would you send the distress signal?

You'd be dead in short order. Have any idea what it like to exist inside a
washing machine, only with drawers and shop objects flying around?


No, never tried that. Are the drawers just dungarees or the wooden
kind that slide into cabinets? Are the shop objects rags or drill
presses and bench grinders? These are compelling questions.
