A captain's rule-When the lightning starts, it's automatically the mate's time to steer the vessel.

[@0210ronin]

Why? That's interesting.... I'm associated with the military and I find navy customs kinda kool. Don't walk into a bar with your hat on in uniform. Don't try to go in that particular chow hall unless you're a particular rank.

[@MountedDragoon]

@@0210ronin If I had to guess, it's so that the captain can focus on everything happening on the vessel and giving orders rather than putting all their attention into piloting.

[@kristalakey6019]

i would be hidden in the lil bunker trying to stay warm while captain finds a way back to port.

[@SPCcranford1056]

Love how they use NOAA Weather Radio.

[@bokeflo]

Wow! That's some crazy weather to be out in a small boat.

[@kinganonymous1872]

Wait 70mph winds? ThAt dont sound right

[@fallenfallacy8127]

It happens.Offshore with no ground resistance thunderstorms can produce that kind of wind in minutes in a very strong storm. I encounter it several times a season off he NC coast. Most storms usually produce 45-55mph but I have clocked up to 73mph myself but they are rare storms and are usually just short gusts.

[@digijams]

Wow

[@engine4209]

What did that guy say, 70 mile an hour winds I don't think so.
I guess that was TV talk.

[@gauravladha5465]
