Those images are the stuff of dreams never remembered upon awakening. Unimaginable! ✌️

When I was in the USN we got caught in some storms like this. Some of us actually got a greenish tinge to our skin. Not forgetting the difficulty it caused our sleeping. Still I'd go back and do it all over if I could. As always, your video got me researching stuff: roll... pitch... yaw, etc. But I hope things are going better for you, skipper. And thanks for another cool video.

Greetings from Ukraine,my dear friend! Also remember my feelings when I encountered my first storm in Indian ocean off Socotra Island. Ship was heavily rolling for about two days and during this period the only food I was able to consume was a lemon. I layed in bad,sucked the lemon and thought of how I was mistaken to select this job:) Best wishes to you!

Did the lemon help? I hadn't heard of that one. I ran and threw up over the gunwhale. When I'd finished I looked over and there were another three or four guys down from me doing the same. LOL! But I felt better afterwards.

Greetings from Colorado again, Captain, just curious, do you keep track of your personal voyage history, of all the ports visited and kilometers traveled?... It's wonderful how the seascape constantly changes with the winds and clouds, from almost mirror smoothness to the fearsomeness of a full fledged typhoon, It's always a treat when there are beautiful land forms nearby, as when passing through rivers, straits and island groups, I remember passing Mt Etna at night when it was erupting and circling Stromboli when it was "passing gas"... the sunsets/sunrises, the blackness of clear moonless nights and the phosphorescence in the water, the flying fish in some regions (like the South China Sea)... Having done my time at sea back in the 1960s and living far inland, I remember when I first got on the internet some 20 years ago, what a thrill it was when I found some at sea views. I'm very thankful for the experiences I've had and kind of feel sorry for all those who have missed out. Your videos are always very enjoyable to watch, thanks for posting and best wishes.

Good morning,my dear friend! Regretfully no voyage history was kept , which I now wish I had done. So many interesting and beautiful places were visited during my almost 30 years work at sea. I'm really happy that I chose this job. Many thanks for your feedback!
