On our way on the MV Ushuaia to Antarctica, we had to cross the Drake Passage. The start was calm and beautiful, but soon a storm was coming up. We experienced some magical moments on 12 meter high waves.

Imagine working an old wooden ship in these seas, climbing up and down the mast to set sails in all weather, wondering if you'd live long enough to ever be dry again. Brave, brave men.

Thank you for posting this video! I was on the MV Ushuaia early in 2017 crossing the Drake passage. It was so rough the first night that I kept getting slammed against the wall and railing of my bed all night long and got no sleep. So the next morning I had housekeeping give me some extra pillows and using those and some spare clothes I stuffed them under my mattress to make a lengthwise trough in the center of the mattress to hold me in one position for sleeping.

A good video for people from whom english is not first language. Many of Alistair McLeans describe situations on ships and seas most of which miisses readers like me due to lack of sea or sailing vocabulary but this provides a great understanding of the kind of events in those novels.

6:18 there's one wave towering over its neighbours, just right of the centre of the screen in the background. Looks like a candidate for a freakwave to me. Brilliant video!
@skatatataatje3 жыл бұрын
A rogue wave would be a lot higher then the waves you see there. From 6 to 10 times the current wavelength, so the freakwave would be between 72 and 120 meters high there. You would notice that very clear, since that would cover the whole ship. Check this one for size comparison: /watch?v=_akyfMp9ln8

0:58. I can’t believe those are 7 metre waves either. I’ve been in waves that high often enough. I think that’s the expected wave height. 3:19 Why did these people buy a ticket. Reading books a cell phones! Look around you! This was supposed to be why you’re here!

From Pearl Harbor to olongapo Philippines we hit a typhoon, the waves were so tall a porthole on the port side 30’ above the waterline failed. The starboard stabilizer ripped off and made contact with one of the screws. Like a card in a bicycle wheel, only way louder… rat tat tat.. rat tat tat… tat rat tat all the way to the Philippines for dry dock. Great times
