  • You all fucked off from the lifeboat station like a bunch of fucking fuckers. Well tidy mun. Well fucking tidy.

  • rock an' roll. Tidy.

  • @Jelmerzzz Speed is one thing - but these have got more power - this, and the Severn Class RNLI lifeboat, 1 metre bigger than this - has enough power to tow a tanker.

  • WOW! I'd love to do this! going to tenby soon, to see the exercise launch

  • cracking video

  • hey have bouys at the end of the slipway bow and stern to which they tie a rope to, then they line them selves up in line with the slipway using the tide. A launcher will then pass the wire cable either by boat or a throwing line crew will tie it to the boats towing bollards then up she goes. Fairly straight forward in calm waters, but when its blowing now theres another thing.

  • I was just wondering: How do they get it back up there?

  • 25 kts? nice ;]

  • woow thats soo cool

  • 25kts! I'm dreamin' of a tamar!
