It was a gloomy day. A stormy wind (was blowing) when I went on board the ship at three in the afternoon. I (unpacked) my luggage and (did not pay) any attention to the weather. I (noticed) that we (were) late and later on I (found) out that it (took) us two hours to start on the voyage. So when we (reached) the open sea, huge waves (were rising). The ship (was being thrown) about like a toy on the huge waves. I (had) to stay on deck to help the sailors. I was afraid I (could) (be washed) overboard. It was the worst storm I have/had ever seen.

Dear [имя],
Thank you for your letter. Sorry I've not written for so long, I was helping my granny in the countryside and staff.
First of all, snowboarding is an extreme sport, so you have to be careful. Besides, keep all the necessary equipment with you in order to not get hurt. What is more, I would join a gym if I were you.
By the way, recently I've visited a skating rink. I had never been on a skating rink before. I am used to roller-skating in summer, but skating is yet difficult for me and I've got much to learn until I can say that I am good at skating.
Look forward to receiving your reply.
Best wishes,
