Coast Guard in 18 foot waves... (raw video to Hazardous Seas )

This is the second worst dangerous bar entrance on the west coast. Coast Guard's 47 foot lifeboats taking on large ocean waves 15-18 feet in height. The radar sitting above their heads is 18 feet off the waters surface. The deck of the boat sits 6 feet off the water.This is the raw footage from the music video "Hazardous Seas"

wow...how do they ever get out?

@arickosmo Right through the surf if they have to. Usually they will just time the wave intervals (sets) there can be upto 10+ in an interval though.

@souljaboy0071 Have you ever seen those Ozzy lifeguards in those dory's? About 8 lifeguards per boat and they crash through waves that big and then surf the waves back in. They have competitions in huge surf. The Ozzy's love that kind of thing. If one of them gets eaten by a "white pointer", they just laugh. Tough nuts.

my grandpa was in the coast guard and he said they use to go out in little skiffs during hurricanes to rescue people.
