Later Doug told us a warship had created 4 or 5 6m waves! So sediment all stirred up, we returned round bow & slowly ascended to deck again. Some problems with air in feet (using club orange dry-suit) & needed to grab handrail to get feet down again! Not cold, except for hands. Buoyancy control could be better - use ankle weights! Hint of leg cramp - not cold (wearing thermals & undersuit liner) - probably air in feet :(!
