I imagine the p does rock on it’s long axis, tho.

Kinda like the time I was duck hunting and shot while leaning on the back gunwhale. Kept my shotgun dry, tho.

Actually pitch is a greater problem than roll. The same is true of aircraft carriers.

As you approach the bow, the vertical motion can be in excess of 45 feet. Imagine trying to walk while yo-yoing four stories every 90 seconds in addition to any roll.

The higher you are on the ship the greater the perceived effect of roll. At the height of the Fire control director that can be a lateral motion of 80-90 feet per roll.

Laissez le bon Trump rouler!
