Thanks for the ping.
I was in the tail end of a typhoon off of Japan in March '69 on my Destroyer.
I saw 60-80 ft waves during that storm.
Waves were going clear up to the signal deck which was above the bridge.
The ship took a 47 1/2 degree roll and I saw steel bars bent from the impact of the waves.
