Still thinking about that additional bilge pump.

Didn't see any downriggers.What you think there trolling for????:cen:

The last half of that vid where they are showing the gunboat burying her snout in the waves... been there, done that... on a 410 foot Destroyer that gave me my name in the middle of an Atlantic hurricane... 40*, 6 second snap rolls.. Ripped our starboard anchor loose from it's chock, tore our motor whaleboat off it's davits and into the sea.. Something I never want to go through again... but when you're 18 and immortal it was kind of fun.. cause you don't know the danger you're really in. That particular storm damaged 3 of Desron 12's Destroyers so much that they had to put into port for emergency repairs... all 7 of us sustained damage of some kind or another.. You gain a healthy respect for the power of the ocean when you see a 2" thick steel anchor chock ripped from the deck.

Great vid... thanks for sharing :clap::clap::clap:

Yeah, and here we were pissing in our pants a few years ago in 8-12'ers about 30 foot apart for two hours trying to get back to Lockwoods Folly from 18 Mile Rock.

da hell with dat

Awesome find Bradford. :clap::clap::clap:

The view from above on the destroyer was incredible. That was cool.

Wouldn't a small boat just go over the waves instead of plowing into them? Except for the waves at the end, most of them had large wavelengths.

Pretty cool !!!!!!!!! Thanks for posting

Scott

Cool.....Youtube has tons of big wave videos but that one is by far the very best.

For the closest port if it was me...

LMAO...:you::you::you:

I wonder how the Russian and North Atlantic fisherman would compare to the Deadliest catch guys????
I know those Russian guys are some crazy A-- Muthers!
