I was on USS Eisenhower running North from Hurricane Hugo (Cat4). We were taking waves over the bow. That storm chased us up the Eastern Seaboard to Nova Scotia. On an aircraft carrier that means 60-70ft swells. Every last hatch and door was secured, even the broken ones. Nothing was left loose, every object was a potential missile. Only critical watch stations were manned. The mess decks served box lunches. It was unsafe to operate the cooking equipment due to the pitching and rolling of the ship.

I was on a tin can in ‘66, South China Sea off the coast of Nam, carrier was taking ‘green water’ on the flight deck, we were ‘plowing’ up to the signal bridge. Thanksgiving meal was cold Roast Beef sandwiches

The British have had vessels sailing all bodies of water for centuries longer than the U. S. A. I personally would think their idea of keeping water out of a ship as a way to avoid sinking should be seriously considered.

@brainwavevids7344 Год назад

Mainly everyone just holds their breaths extra big when the ship smacks down on the waves. This makes it 3X as bouyuant compared to if they put their life jackets on during a storm and they can still move around a lot easier in the hallways.

I am a US Navy and I am terrified to ride cruise ships because they can easily flip and sink unlike US warships which is certified tested including nuclear blast. US Warships have compensating fuel/ water design to make sure they are kore stable and impossible to flip. And US warships can detect and outside extreme weather conditions.

I was in a navy as well and I feel the same way about cruise ships. They are stabilized with machinery and machines fail at the worst times.

I still have the same nightmare of being in a bad storm while serving on USS Belleau Wood LHA-3. The ship rolled so far and stayed there at the edge of capsizing for so long that I was nearly paralyzed with fear. In the hangar bay, the chains holding down the harriers and helicopters creaked and groaned under the intense strain. When she recovered from that roll I never doubted her again.

@peterhamlinhamlin8908 Год назад

I was on a 298 foot vessel in 30' seas with occasional 40' waves. Green water over the bow and white water smashing the bridge. I was waiting for green water over the bridge. I was scared to death rolling so hard that another couple feet and we would have rolled right over. Trying to take a dump or a piss was not fun. I managed a shower without being body slammed to the deck. Not sure how.

What about head into oncoming waves at an angle.?

@richardhaddock5660 Год назад

@@johnrogers9481 The side of the ship is more exposed and it might get swamped and roll over especially in big waves. When I served the ship went straight in big seas.

@AngelosGT Год назад

@@richardhaddock5660 That ship won't live for long then. The proper way is to go through the waves in lower speed and always at an angle, like 10 to 20 degrees. Everything else cannot be considered as good seamanship.

Is that every vessel or just boats? Because it seemed like we went straight.

@RobertCCox Год назад

RCN here with 15 years service. The only technique I've seen to avoid sinking in a storm was to stay in port, or take the long route around a storm. Two examples come to mind. First, in 2015 we got an extra day in Split, Croatia due to a big storm in the Adriatic. Second, in the fall of 2020 heading back from Portsmouth England we ran south under the Azores and then swung north to our home port of Halifax, Nova Scotia. No offense but this video doesn't show any "techniques" for avoiding a sinking.
