According to the online calculator - 27 meters is 88.58 feet.

And at that tall, what's +/- 7 feet?

All the more reason we should never convert to the metric system. A wave of 88.58 feet would never have done as much damage as one that was 27 meters.

That's why they use the metric system. Think how much bigger the wave is if you use feet!
