Yup. FASTER Moving water under the boat's hull will keep it from rolling over for the most part.
Lucky.

Saw the first one coming and manged to straighten the boat out and get square with the first wave which crashed on us and here comes 2 more which we managed to punch through with some power.
Scary situation for sure....
