It’s 30 seconds. Bad storm, I can hold my breath and hope for the best, for 30 seconds. An oil tanker is large so the waves and wind have more to push on, and it’s staying there longer than 30 seconds. That’s the part you keep missing, you’re there for only 30 seconds. There’s tons of ships that go threw storms just fine. Also you get 50 skip days, so if you know there’s a bad tropical storm somewhere and you don’t want to risk it, just skip it. But even if there’s a hurricane going over Florida, statistically you’re just going to end up in the Pacific ocean somewhere since that’s the largest body of water. The pacific is ~30% of the earths surface. It’s got more surface area than Mars.
I have understood the 30 seconds part fine. I am looking at it from the point of view that you’re transported instantly and so could be taken by surprise when it occurs, you only need to have a wave crash on you, take in a mouthful of water and you would be in real trouble if get spun out.
There is rough weather out at sea in some part of the world most weeks, given you don’t know where you could be put on the globe then you would have to know you’re going to be dropped into a location with a storm to know to use your skip day otherwise you would be chewing through them pretty quickly.
