  • Bloody hell thats amazing way to launch a ship its a wonder they dont capsize as the ships go in at a tremendous rate of knots.

  • Thats well cool

  • It's funny watching them just slip off of the dock and let 'er rip, I thought it would be a bit more graceful than that.

  • Fortunately they have flywheels in their keels ^^

  • @djAnakin It could be how they test em. I mean if it can take that im pretty sure it can take a minor crash

  • Way cool.

  • at least you know your ship will float

  • @djAnakin save money and even more time i guess

  • Keewl ! :D

  • Well this kind of launching is also a first stress test, to see whether the ship will stand a bit of a pounding. But compared to the sea condition some of those ships are designed to operate in, this is absolutely harmless "splashing about"!
