Been there. Done that. 1965 Hurricane Emily, winds of 80 MPH, aboard USS
Boyd, DD514. 1966 Hurricane Eileen, winds of 75 miles an hour. For a young
kid, who didn't know any better, it was a fantastic, wild, exhilarating, and
happy experience.

Did you hear the story about the USS Boyd fighting off Japs attacking
during the eclipse of the moon?
Sounds like a Salty tin can Jolly.

Great shots of the boat iced up in the 50s. I realize you make a lot of ice
underway but I was surprised to see it so thick. When fishing we used to
break the ice off the rigging on a regular basis. Keep the center of gravity
down. It would build pretty well after a couple hours of steaming.
