M_Boats: M15 :Wild Conditions

'Frank'ly ,crying "mummy"(don't forget to suck your thumb) doesn't answer the question of how the M15 would react in those trying conditions, only you personally.Surely, naval architects/engineers ,if only in the theoretical sense, must consider the limits of a design . How the human element reacts is "all over the map" and,of course, contributes to or detracts from the M15's performance. I find that thinking about stuff like this between bouts of shovelling snow helps to pass the winter- it is indeed safer than boozing and whoring around! Cheers, Harry Elmslie
