An impossible launch... but no one told these guys so they did it anyway!
-
thats the brits ass backward and still getting the job done. well done lads.
-
I don't doubt a word you say and all credit to you and all the heroic men and women who put to sea to save the lives of complete strangers with only the satisfaction of a job well done as payment and sometimes the heartache when a shout is unsuccessful. My point was that the coxswain did get the boat out, yes it was a little untidy, but the sea has a habit of making things difficult for seamen as you probably know more than the rest of us. All the best to you.

@davecuilrathain i was a crew member on same class of boat for 11 years ,there is a system to launch which sling shots the boat of carriage,to do this the tractor has to seperate from carriage....as you can see in video this did not happen.to launch the way they did they needed to be in deeper water,look at depth of water to carriage tracks.
-
The coxswain and crew did a fine job. Takes special people to launch in those conditions.
-
boat was launched into water that was to shallow,beached itself as soon as it left carraige,would not go on boat with coxswain that made such a stupid error,saying that well recovered.
-
Looks to me like the propellers wen't really driving forward at the first wave. A less capable boat wouldn't have fared so well.
-
Watched this a few times. There was nothing wrong with the timing of the launch. It is just unfortunate that the 1st wave turned them sideways. The Coxswain then does an excellent job of recovery.
-
When is a boat truly sea worthy?
When she can be launched after giving her side, whilst beached, in rough seas, in reverse! The RNLI lifeboat's the girl for me!
