My uncle was a union electrician but he made enough money to own a twenty two foot boat. He used to take my dad and me out on it. I know enough that large waves are dangerous.

Protections to keep the boats buoyant. When they realized they had problems and were sinking, someone yelled that Antifa subs were attacking them, so they started colliding with each other as they tried to hide behind each other. Their entire fleet self destructed. It was pandemonium as Radical Republicans panicked and began shoving each others heads underwater to save themselves. They will write songs about this glorious battle someday.
