Link didn't work, but found several videos on Youtube. Pretty nasty.

Interesting that with all the technology and years of service exposed to the elements, when trying to describe the sea and wind conditions the pilots utilized the Beaufort Scale.

We sailor’s would benefit from a better understanding and utilization of this tool.

I hope to only ever see videos of these kinds of events. I certainly never want to go through one...
