Default Size of seas and size of boat

"But that does bring up an interesting question, what's the biggest ship
that's been sent to the bottom by seas? Not icebergs, U-boats, or
collisions, but by good ol' Mother Nature, other than turning the Cape
and meeting up with the rocks, just out on the open blue water. Will
have to look into that..."

Sometime during WWII the US Navy ran into a fierce typhoon in the
Pacific that sunk a lot of their ships. Don't know the specifics on
which types though.
