That Sinking Feeling

White foam on rough seas

The boat was pitched to and fro

Then capsized with ease

My hubby likewise experienced a hurricane at sea on a research vessel. By the way I was in the Navy too! Thank you for your service! I was in, in the 1980’s.

Thanks Kim, I was having flashbacks when I was in the Navy. We hit a storm in the Mediterranean and came close to capsizing ourselves. Luckily the ballast held, but I still consider it the wildest ride I ever took. Rollercoasters are like kiddie cars compared to the ride you can take out at sea. I appreciate your feedback baby sister.
