Should've constructed it in a 3D printer. No cracks, no worries.

When the waves are taller than your boat is long, that is when to call it quits.

You have to build them tough to last around here. Mine happens to be build in 1972 and still around so it fits the bill.

I remember this day. It got very sloppy leaving inner harbor.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gPy2DHHnlqQ The North Sea, I spent 4 days on a 400' supply vessel on my first trip out to the Rig.

Weather was so bad it took 2 days longer to get to the Ninian Central platform. Boat took a major beating and I threw up for 2 days.

This is not the actual video but very similar to what I experienced then and on one other trip

It kind of takes the wonder out of why according to an annual analysis from insurer Allianz, 94 ships (over 100 gross tonnes) were completely lost in 2013.

Wow...that's pretty disturbing.
