My question to you,
Were you at the helm when this was happening or just a crew member along for the ride?
Sometimes, whan you are just along for the ride (Like me in the passanger seat when my wife is driving), it can be more unnerving than if you are at the wheel.
Next time out in bad conditions. Take the helm and see what it feels like. (If in fact you were not at the helm)
Maybe if you get the feel for how the boat reacts, and better yet, what you can do to manage things in adverse conditions, you will feel more at ease.
Edit: I see that Siamese makes the same point. Sorry for the repeat.
