I guess these sorts of waves are so big that they don't break over a ship? Even a VLCC??? What kind of angle does a ship take riding up/down one of these things?

You hope they don't break over the ship but depends on wavelength. The only one I've witnessed was large enough for us to drive up one side and down the other... but one of the successive waves broke.
I couldn't tell you the angle readings as we weren't recording them and during the event I wasn't checking anything but my pants ;)
(Dan, if you're reading.... how's that stack holding up ;)
