Wow. Talk about a wild ride. That would make for a cruise to remember.

You would think with all the weather forecasting that the captain would've been smart and avoided this.

How did they get hold of GWX's Real Life U-Boat Behaviour Mod? :rotfl:

It's amazing how much of a battering these ships can take.

In that situation I would set torpedoes with a magnetic trigger and run them shallow.

I remember discussing that case here on the general forum about a year ago.

I've been in worse.

On the most treacherous sea of them all, the Baltic sea.
During commie times Polish passanger ships used to go out into the worst stormes(not allowed today). When they returned to port they used to have some windows smashed by the waves and the deck was very often remodeled, so to speak.

An other funny thing was that they didn't have any arrival times, they left Gdansk harbour at 1800 hours and reached their destination, as fast as possible.

Those where the days, though I feel much safer when I travel by boat from Poland nowdays...
