When I was young and foolish, we crossed the lower chesapeake Bay during a light summer storm to the eastern shore.
On the way back from fishing, we encountered huge seas, rolling waves, wind and rain. I had to cut into these waves at 45* angle or the boat would roll into the troughs. So Landon, who was 5 was sleeping on the sofa and with every roll the sofa would slide out and when boat would roll back it would slide back into place. So here I am at the helm with my brother, and my 8 year old girl and his 9 years old son climbs out on the side deck and I saw as the boat rolls Shaun is hanging onto the top rail as he walks along the side deck with his feet dangling off over the water... They wanted to go to the bow to see the waves....
We got them back inside ok. Landon finally wakes up and keeps screaming we are all going to die...
