@plumcrazypurp : yes, usually a captain and some technicians, the launch on the water is something similar to a storm that the ship wil surely find in the life.
@plumcrazypurp look at th front of it you can see a guy fall as it hit the water with a orange jacket or overalls you can see him try to climb back up from being nocked over the railing
A heavy cargo ship like that is going to probably hit some good 15 foot wave, so It has to be able to withstand the elements like that, so thats bascally why I knew it wouldn't.........but it does LOOK like it's gonna!
Lemme correct you. A number of large vessels are traditionally referred to as boats. Submarines are a prime example Other types of large vessels which are traditionally called boats are the Great Lakes freighter, the riverboat, and the ferryboat.[citation needed] Though large enough to carry their own boats and heavy cargoes, these vessels are designed for operation on inland or protected coastal waters. Thank you Wikipedia. Now you dont have to learn anyhting else till midnight :-)
@btjohnson83 Very good. Though not all Great Lakes freighters are boats, some are ships. Lake MIchigan can actually have some pretty rough seas at times.
Electric Boat in Groton CT had to start launching the 600 FT Tridendent submarine sideways like that, so it would not stick in the mud on the other side of the quarter mile wide river.
thats not a boat its a ship its well over 100 foot long lol

This video should have been about 50 seconds shorter. Especially without sound. IMHO. Otherwise, nice boat launch.
