I have searched through the slides and as I thought not too many that would copy well. Lots of sea but always difficult to show how bad it was. Tried with one of the attached to give the impression of the wave height but I am sure it was much worse as they kept battened down during the worst of the hurricane/storm.

From l-r.
Believe this was when they picked up the yacht - Sortilege of Madoc - from the builders.
This is some of the pod of Killer Whales mentioned in the article.
My wife's uncle - Hedley Smith on the wheel.
The waves look pretty big to me from a 41 ft yacht. I am sure it got worse.

I have a few more which I will post in due course. Most seem to be from the delivery voyage up to UK. Quality has been an
issue due to the age and the fact that they have been stored in a damp area at some time.
