Default ship caught in 109mph winds

Apparently last week off the Isle of Wight 3 ships like one of these

were caught out at sea. One in 109 mph winds leaned to approximately 60 degrees. Photographs of the inside of the ship were not allowed but I have seen pictures of the vehicles on the quay.
New lorries written off. Think of an empty coke can on its end and then hit with a club hammer. The cut and shunt boys would have fun.

I should think the crew were glad to get into port, must have been quite scary, even terrifying
