The deck was at an angle of 95 to the ocean.

In the picture no human beings were represented on the deck; I suppose they had slipped off.

Indeed, I do not see how anyone could have kept on, unless nailed.

I pointed out this disadvantage to the agent, who, however, explained to me that the picture represented the _Rogue_ doubling something or other on the well-known occasion of her winning the Medway Challenge Shield.

Mr.Pertwee assumed that I knew all about the event, so that I did not like to ask any questions.
