Does a chop like that make for a bumpy ride. I have only been on 110 foot, never any anything as big as you are on.

Actually this is a smaller canal boat so think we're only 30' wide and 75' long ?

My uncle was a great lakes tug captain and worked the shipyard in Sturgeon bay.


he talked about the worst wind storm they every had breaking the moorings on a big freighter they had in for repairs , ripped the concrete right out of shore.
they then spent 2 days round the clock pushing with 2 tugs to hold it until the wind calmed down enough

definitely an everyone on watch shifts kind of day with wind like that.

I remember halibut fishing on Cook Inlet, Alaska is six and eight foot seas in a thirteen foot Zodiac. That's a rubber boot. Next stop for me if the engine failed was probably Japan. Those were the days.
