Gun stabilization was invented for ships and adapted for tanks later.
Stabilized battleship guns were allready around in WW1.
A 76mm OTO mount won't work in that kind of seas, I think.
Maybe in direct fire mode at short ranges, but not ballistically or anti-air.
These waves are just too big to compensate.
Strangely enough, stabilization moved from big guns to small guns.
