Yes it does make your job twice as hard .On the trawlers used to be fun trying to have a shower...take a dump..and loved waking up after cracking your head on your bunk!

Apaprently it voids the insurance on the ferrys to have them out in that type of weather.

Hi Ya,

Bunch of pussies.  Any other day they'd be paying good money to ride on a roller coaster for the same effect. Laughing 

 

Cheers.

Swell

Brought an 80 foot boat over from New Zealand in 2000,we had swell showing between 14-18metres coming across the Tasman.Been in some rough weather before but nothing anywhere near like that and if someone asks if they want a boat ferried over again they can shove it big time.The ferries can handle the weather easily its the paying punters who can't
