If you haven't been scared on occasion while boating in the ocean then
you either haven't been boating in the ocean, or your actual time boating
in the ocean has been minimal. The only experienced seaman who haven't
been frightened on occasion by the ocean either are really stupid or
dead.


I don't think I have ever felt like I am going to crap in my pants for any
reason, on the sea or on land.


Then you must have never had a colonoscopy! :-)



In the ocean, I have been in gale force winds, have felt very queasy, and
have even been sea sick, but no, I have never felt like I am going to crap
in my pants. If you think everyone reacts to stressful situations by being
frightened or feeling like they are going to crap in their pants, you are
incorrect.
