I looked at the other compelling videos JoeS Butcher posted on youtoub. The one that really gave me a laugh was the one Joe titled, GIANT MONSTER WAVES ! http://www.youtube.com/user/JoeSButc.../1/EomTf3hczco Bwahahahahhahahahahh! I thought that one was a riot, too. It's as if he were being facetious or something but he was dead serious. He clearly has never experienced a real 25 foot sea on a small sailing yacht. I have, and they are NOTHING like the 'chop' in that video. You have not sailed anywhere but a back woods mangrove swamp at best. Here is 11 ft seas Nellie:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lC2AGQZtsvM Wouldn't 11 foot seas be somewhat higher than the cabin top?- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Yes, We had 11 fters for 4-5 days out of the NE. Again it's hard to determine wave height from video's but thats what they were. They were spaced a good 100 ft, it's not like they were splashing over the wheelhouse, more like a slow rise and fall, a nice ride infact. Joe Joe, I think I understand your plight in that you constantly overestimate wave size. It's because all your adult life you've been telling Terry this: ----------------------- is six inches. Bwahahhahahahahahhahaha. Wilbur Hubbard |
