    “The ship was heavily damaged, and could very easily have sunk, -, but to the shore people it was much more a concern, that the red carpet were NOT immediately laid out for them.”

    WTF?!

    Good lord, those are some amazing pictures, if that had been me I never would have gotten within twenty feet of any body of water larger than a soup bowl again after that … How amazing that everyone ended up okay (well, maybe “okay but for some tragic condition that rendered the author incapable of writing without excessive use of exclamation points” ;))

    And what if he had stayed south, and encountered a big storm?

    From what I remember in 1977, the weather forecasting was awful. You were better off consulting an almanac.

    I have a fascination with the large bodies of water of our planet. And this is just awe-inspiring.

    Nice Picture, I’ve used it on my blog for my poem “The Sea” I was out in the North Atlantic in 78 for 21 days in 21 to 24 foot seas dodging storms all around us, our superstructure cracked and I became the master helmsman for special evolutions. We made 4 attempts at taking on fuel and decided to give it up and go to the straights to fuel before we ran out, thank goodness. After that, I always loved the ocean and never could understand why.
