I was in the Navy in the mid to late 70's and was deployed to the western Pacific for 2 years. During that time we went through 3 typhoons. The waves crested at more than 30 feet. It was awe inspiring.

Feb. '64 crossed the North Atlantic heading to the Med. on a Tin Can. The North Atlantic in winter can be brutal. Stand By For Heavy Rolls. A few years later I was down crossing the Ross Sea, on our way to McMurdo sound, Antartica .. the roughest body of water on the planet. Talk about heavy rolls. You are walking on the bulkheads part of the time. Crest to trough .. over 75 feet.

[@leecowell8165]

Incredible! is that anywhere East of Hudson Bay off of Bay of Fundy? Knew a captain that sailed his 60' double ender in those waters back in the 60's. tell you what they don't make boats like that anymore this guy was nuts! that boat didn't even have an engine. he stated that on more than one occasion he was heeled over 45 degrees with the leeside gunnel 3 feet under water... with sails still up! This boat had inside steering. good thing. not me.

[@dmanagable]

The LCS program is one of the greatest boondoggles in the DoD's history, the Navy just completely and utterly screwed up here. That said if they really do want to decommission all these ships, maybe the Coast Guard will have some use for them. They're worthless in a fight but maybe they could at least be able to handle drug smugglers and the occasional pirate in a outboard motorboat. Just a boondoggle, what else can you say

[@TheBelrick]

Son, USN has been screwing up since the evil globalists conquered usa and really ramped up the great replacement. now all these diversity hires are doing an awful job on every program within the us military. And it will get worse

was on the USSS CHARLES S SPERRY DD696. while out in the Atlantic near a hurricane we were taking 42 degree rolls port/strbrd. a wave came over the bow over our stacks, broke a window out in steering, put our boilers fires out. BOAT was designed too only take 47 degrees.

[@martinnauta4385]

Did you expect a pleasure cruise???

[@leecowell8165]

Friend of mine years ago sailed on a double ender about 50' at the waterline. Heavy displacement sail. this boat was steel built sometime in the mid 40's it didn't even have a motor. he stated many times they heeled over 45 degrees and kept right on sailing tight to the wind! that captain was nuts! this was a midship cockpit with inside steering. it had a massive keel and rudder. I saw the boat it didn't even have a doghouse looked like a sub with no conical. unreal. they used to rack it in the Bay of Fundy to clear barnacles and they weren't alone in doing that nasty job. Everything was gimbled even the bunks. This was NOT a southern boat it had tiny 8" brass round ports and that was about it. those ports on the leeside were sometimes 3 feet underwater. unreal. lotta times they sailed with just the jib and ketch... no mainsail. I don't think the main mast was over 30' tall. what a beast. don't make em like that anymore.
