"Not a great idea in 6 to 8 foot waves."

Correct.....you should never be there in the first place !!!!!
But if you are, go to the head and SIT DOWN and hold on.

I also wouldnt use a bucket in a hurricane.

Remember, this is all speculation as to what happened to this poor fellow 
that was lost overboard. It may have been something totally different than 
we are thinking.
