I once had a friend, maybe about 40 years ago now who was an old sea dog. Merchant navy all his life. At the time I lived in Cowes on the Isle Of Wight in England. Pretty much one of the top sailing venues on the planet.

When people were messing around in their boats in the harbour, in hushed tones he said to me on a few occasions. “you don’t take the piss out of the sea, she has a mind of her own she’ll take you down if you don’t show respect and she’ll look after you if you do”

I always treated the sea with respect after that!

What a pity she wasn't born 200 years ago. They would have burned her as a witch

How much do you reckon she would charge to send rain into the dust bowl of rural Australia.

Now that would be impressive

Yea, but just wait New Jersey, she is pulling one your way. OFFS.
