Rogue wave sequence showing 60-foot plus wave hitting tanker headed south from Valdez, Alaska

Rogue wave sequence showing 60-foot plus wave hitting tanker headed south from Valdez, Alaska. The ship was running in about 25-foot seas when a monster wave struck it broadside on the starboard side. This shows the OVERSEAS CHICAGO heeled to port after the wave struck and the water rushing off off the deck. Photo -3 of sequence. The port rail is nearly dipped under.
