I looked up as everything just stopped. To my surprise the eye was overhead, clear and blue with a mass of clouds in a circle spinning around. Very scary indeed. Needless to say I was at college and playing mud football out in the hurricane drunk as a skunk:rotfl:The good ole days.
I was attending the University of Hawaii when Hurricane Eva hit, the Marine Biology department north of Makapu'u capture some footage of THE EYE... it was incredibly flat, plastic, and mirrored. It was if that portion of the sea was trying to HIDE from the Hurricane.

I've sailed into doldrums and seen sea so smooth it looked like glass... Not a breath of wind, not a cloud in the sky, not a ripple on the water... (Thank God for weather telemetry!)

Doldrums:



"Oily" water, but there still apears to be some swell.

Bering Sea:



Very flat, but I'm sure also very atypical for the Bering Sea.

Flat sea is nice and realistic, but only in quite rare circumstances.
we We need also a nice rough sea and also great storms. I my opinion at least..
