Lol. I wouldn't even be close to the correct side of that buoy in a ship like that. It's like 250 meters from shore!

Wonder if they had gone full reverse when it was swinging if they could have gotten off.

Wow, that's some rough sea! Bring back memories from when I was in the Navy, seeing destroyers completely disappear underwater in rough seas, and waves going over our flight deck (a carrier). Monster waves!

Wait, what?! Seriously?! Any pictures of that? I can't even imagine the kind of seas that would cause that.

If I remember right, it was a very heavy gale. On our way from Hawaii to Japan. I was up on the bridge at the time, and our ship was heading directly into the huge waves (which it had to do). Just amazing to actually see those waves top the flight deck.

Here's a YouTube video of the USS Kittyhawk getting pounded. Watch at about 10 seconds in. :eek:

I hope it's okay to venture into the military side of boating.

Here's a video of the Barracuda military assault vessel. Specially designed for rough seas! The tech in this assault vessel is awesome!

I'm in love with this express/walk around style. I love this boat. When I see it again next year I'm heading over to find out more about it. I think it's a cold molded custom

Check out this wild ride. The video is only 30 seconds long. Watch at the 20 second mark for a surprise. LOL.

Picked this one up last year, been working on changing around some stuff, added reverse lights into the trailer so far, we normally get to the dock before the sun comes up so the reverse lights are a big plus.

Being In Michigan we play on the water all summer long. I am lucky enough to play on two of the big lakes.

Here is THE WSO party on Lake Michigan

And here is the big party know as Raft Off on Lake St. Claire which is connected to Lake Erie
