Over in Ireland, one surge actually burst open through a pub door, imagine that, when you’re sipping a pint of Guinness in front of a log fire, although actually, in Ireland maybe they didn’t even notice?
The power and the dangers of the sea should never be underestimated and, even though many of us like to think we can cope with the big stuff, always weigh up the dangers when sailing in big storms, never sail alone – and watch out for your mates!
Even if you go along to watch a storm armed with a flask of hot chocolate and a camera, beware of standing too close to breaching waves and if you see a huge set coming, while you’re on a vulnerable promenade – run like hell!
