There should be some Navy or Merchant Marine freepers who could share their experiences with giant waves while out at sea - any one?

My Vietnam era friend stationed on the USS Vesuvius stated it camed close to rolling over after being hit by a rogue wave.

Good morning.
Always keep one hand for the ship, one for yourself and trust in your luck.

Seen a few horrors in the North Atlantic during some very bad storms, but nothing like this.
I learned a long time ago however, not to pooh pooh something someone saw just because I have never experienced it. As my tag line says.....
