Not necessarily… sailors would tie themselves to the ship for the inevitable overboarding and then pull their way back up. The downside was that you were almost certainly dead if the ship capsized.
Still you better have some good luck and lungs. You gone be under water for about 10-20 seconds while the ocean decides to water board you, and hope you don’t hit something while underwater, then survive hypothermia
Hahaha I’m not saying it was osha approved! But you have a better chance of getting back on the ship in 1 piece than going overboard in a storm like that.
Haha, I guess you’re right, also, me personally , if I go overboard in a storm like this, imma just accept it as my time to go 😂 the amount of effort it will take to survive this, mmm yea I’m good

Worse yet: Encountering a wave like that.
You’re done.
