Signed up for sea trials in two-three weeks, hope I get the chance to ride that beast of mass destruction. Would be an experience of a lifetime.

I might get sick if I go Charley, but my role would not be like yours I am sure.
I'll never have a chance to experience this again, so hell if I'm sick. If I get the chance, I am going.

There is always one person on every boat trip that makes you turn back because they got sea sick.
I doubt these guys will.

Fresh water waves are different then salt water waves .
I used to Charter on Lake Ontario for salmon .
Had 4 Guys from Newfoundland .
Put the gravall on the Table and recommended they take a pill.
Lord thunderin geesus Boy,
We are from the Rock and never been sick in me life .
Well I did not get the lines set and all four where over the side and all you could see was their bottoms .
See Sickness is the worst in the world .
You get so sick you are afraid you are going to die
Then you get sicker and are wishing you do die.
Been there and it is Bad .

I come from a family of shipbuilders and Navy men Charlie.
I was referring to pleasure boats.
That is why I said these guys will not turn around.
My father was a Navy Seal and I have spent much of my life on the water.
We have a tiny lake near my town.(actually a chain)
