    I think those are incorrectly titled. Rough seas perhaps but I don't think it's a tsunami. I ship at sea probably wouldn't feel a tsunami regardless of how large it was. It would be little more than a gentle swell in open ocean. It doesn't become destructive until it reaches shallow water and the stored energy creates the wave.

    I was thinking the same thing Rick a tsunamis energy is under water and wind energy is on the surface, but I didn't title this roller coaster.

    Yeah, a sea anchor might help, too. You can never be too careful. We're preppers you know.

    You guys are correct. Tsunamis aren't more than a few inches if a foot high out in open water, but they are very large in length. As they approach shore, the front slows and the rest of the wave catches up, which makes it grow. It is also why they push inland so far, because the front of the wave breaks and the rest of the wave is still pushing.

    Looks like the ship lost power. That's the only reason I could see for them taking the seas directly on their beam.

    Now see? That right there is a real Navy type guy talkin'. I would have thought beam like a light beam or maybe like a steel beam but a real Navy kinda guy would know that a beam is........well, Navy jargon.
