Wow it was rough!

Anyone know how high the seas were last night on the Miracle? We are guessing 12- 15 feet. I would love to know if any one found out.

The worst we have been in is probably 15ft seas. Interesting maintaining balance that's for sure.

It was 7.5-12 ft. on the Conquest yesterday cruising through the Gulf. I think about half of the passengers and a lot of the staff on board were sick. Thankfully, I did ok, but my wife did not feel well all day.

Just got off Miracle as well & the rocking was terrible last night. Was on the verge of being sick & some in our party did get sick.

Is this typical of this time of year?

You can check wave heights on this website. There are several in the Gulf of Mexico south of New Orleans. During hurricane Ivan the wave heights reached 58 feet at the buoy south of Dauphin Island AL.

Gad, I hope the ocean calms down before we sail the end of next month out of NYC.

I went to that web site and couldn't figure out how rough the waves were going to be.
