On 13 May 2015 the Chinese foreign ministry sent a complaint to the United States after Fort Worth made Freedom of navigation passage near Spratly Islands claimed by China. During her deployment to the South China Sea, Fort Worth encountered several warships of the People's Liberation Army Navy, putting the new rules of the Code for Unplanned Encounters at Sea into practice in a "professional" manner. On 12 January 2016, according to a memo from the service, it was reported that Fort Worth was sidelined in port at Singapore indefinitely because of damage to gears that propel the vessel, which resulted from a failure to use enough lubricating oil. As a result, on 28 March 2016, the commander of LCS crew 101 (the LCS is manned by a rotating crew), was relieved of duty and was temporarily replaced by the deputy commodore of Destroyer Squadron 7. However, a subsequent assessment found that the damage to Fort Worth was less severe than initially believed, and her engines were repaired in Singapore by late July ahead of returning to the United States for further repairs

I've been on rougher garden ponds

No need to have a response from the crew. Just a basic sea roiling. if the ship where to slow a little it would plow along nicely. Obviously they are moving along at this clip for a reason.

Let's hope that poor Corpsman has enough dramamine.

That first wave crash. Aw sheet.

"Rough Seas"
Just about force 7, not much of a big deal. -
Amen, Jimmybean, you haven't seen rough 'till you've taken solid-green seas halfway back on the flight deck of a Nimitz-class carrier, and done so for about 12 hours. . CVN-70, 84-89.

Your a bonka boat! When you can see the draft of your boat including the sea chest intakes then you just might have a few rough waves. You don't have a sonar dome to create that popping shimmy that can rock you to sleep.

this ship is actually rather large at 387ft
-
1984 or 85? Adams Class DGG21 Cochrane, through the eye of a typhoon 25-30 ft seas! This one looks like a lullaby!

knowing the navy, this happened right after a fresh water washdown.

All the criticism so far, and we have not seen even one Fort Worth crewmember verify or challenge any of the gratuitous comments here. It is possible they are too busy being active-duty warriors to stoop to our level and straighten us out? I respect their service and attention to duty, while we sail our desks into the imaginary future.

This is just a speed boat on some waves, nothing rough here, slow down and it'll rock yah to sleep.
-
how we can find girls in middle of ocean???
-
No rough sea indeed.
-
All this for an over glorified gunboat?

Was not that rough. USS Intrepid 1971-1974
