I know people that have piloted ships across the Atlantic and North Sea in winter gales. they all stated, that is a cake walk compared to the great lakes during a storm

waves on the great lakes get the same height however are closer together than in the ocean.

Another marine song about a large ship sinking.
The Hood of WW II. Fighting at sea.
Let us not forget every year. That about 3 to 5 Container Ships sink.
