Thats why people shouldn't complain about the price of fish.It so often comes at the cost of human lives,as does coal.

Wonderfull film re the sea.
Theres little doubt that we have all be through similar weather at some time or other, at the time is was classed as 'a little bit of bad weather'. When you look at the film now all I can say is Wow.
I was on a tanker in the late 50's in a hurricane in the North Atlatic and it was the only time that the Captain ordered all hands to wear a lifejacket at all times until it blew over.
Thinking of what the trawlermen endure the price of fish is cheap.

Hi Doc, Colin here. I have read these threads about 'turbulent sea video' and I'm damned if I can find it. Would appreciate if you can enlighten me, as I do like rough weather videos etc.
regards
Colin.
