An Arleigh-Burke-class destroyer, Flight-1 (the kind that do not have helo hangars).
Gotta admit, it's pretty smooth - we have stabilizers and sea-water compensated fuel tanks - but once we hit the Yellow Sea, especially in typhoon season, you're all but guaranteed to see some poor sap losing his meals.
One ship that I feel pity for is this one Frigate that pulled in about six months ago. They had somehow lost one of their stabilizers during the trip. While that's an inconvenience, it's not one big enough to warrant an emergency trip to the dry-dock. Felt bad for that crew because they were in the middle of a nine-month West-PAC cruise.
