Produce a detailed written description of a dangerous scene outside a boat ship with a galley and an oak door.

In the middle of the ship, the main deck is closest to the water of all the open decks, and on a hard heel the waves can wash over the exposed planks. For this reason, everything is securely fastened down to keep it from sliding or being washed away, and the hatches are tightly dogged shut. Forward lies the forecastle and an oak door leading to the galley, while aft rises the quarterdeck and under it, a cabin door.
