No, this is, Lake Superior, very cold, fresh water. There was always some minor animosity between fresh and salt water sailors...I never understood why. From a physical standpoint, each kind of liquid can drown a man just as dead.

For some reason or other I can just visualize a contest between two men, chained to the bow of the ship in this storm, to see who can withstand the abuse the longest.
Naturally, neither of them would survive.
