I have also spent time in the southern ocean aswell as the grounds of New Plymouth New Zealand.....yes 70 kt winds can be frequent but the speed that a cyclone changes the conditions,the unpredictable nature of them and the intensity you must make to get away from them make them very stressfull.
The southern Ocean can be equally as bad as anywhere else. I spent four years down there and it can get nasty. I wouldn't say that this clip is super extreme but believe me, it's a hell of lot nastier than it looks. I tried to take some video when down south and it didn't look very impressive even though we were rolling up to 45 degrees. It only looked impressive when a wave broke the bow and flooded the deck but this didn't always happen depending on how 'beam on' we were to the swell.
@oggy.....you say not much of a cyclone. the uploader never claimed this was a cyclone...he says 'some rough seas', and ' running from a cyclone'
