OP A spelling bee word that for once is very interesting. I remember seeing on Internet an artice
about boating hazards. A seiche is a "rogue" wave that can seriously endanger small craft
without warning. And on occasion, the wake of one fast power boat may without warning
unpredictably seriously endanger others. Aso at times they may cause serious damage to
shorefront property.
Dear Bean: you might wish to elaborate on this.
