Ocean swell at the entrance of the Strait of Juan de Fuca

They are even larger if you go for a swim in mid Atlantic, and the only floating thing for 1000 miles is drifting away from you. On the Endeavour, we were pretty careful. Also very salutary is how difficult it is to see anything/one that has gone overboard after a few seconds.

We're gonna need a bigger boat!
