I had a very good friend who thought he was a great sailor and was an investment banker. He decided to organize a sailing trip from France to the Bahamas. They started with 3 100 foot sailboats. The first 48 hours out from the coast of France a deadly wind called the Mistral which brings with it huge waves appeared. All three boats were engulfed and all 25 crew members on all three boats were killed and disappeared. One survived.

The sea can be treacherous.

The Sea is not kind even on a Cruise ship you are in God’s hands.
