Rogue wave estimated at 60 feet moving away from ship after crashing into it a short time earlier. In the Gulf Stream off of Charleston, South Carolina, with light winds of 15 knots.

I've been in 20 foot seas in a 35 ft sailboat- that was MORE than enough weather to last me a lifetime.
I know some sailors who've seen a couple of monsters..out of nowhere -but these are people who live on their boats and sail around the world- I guess while rare, these events are well-documented over the years.
It's kind of interesting that all in all nothing moves in waves. Things go around in little circles, and over time they go nowhere.
