Shore to Ship and Back again - by Land Rover!

LRO spend a day with 40 Commando, The Royal Marines, 11 (ATT) Squadron, Instow, Devon. Mark Saville drove out to the landing craft and back, first as co-driver with trainer Phil Royale and then as driver. The water was 1.5-metres deep by the landing craft with waves occasionally breaking over the vehicle, I got very wet. The full feature is in LRO Feb 09 on sale December 31, 2008.

LAND ROVERS ARE THE BEST!!!

In theory the salt wont rust the skin, but take into consideration the steel chassis and other vulnerable components such as the axles... Aluminium doesn't rust, it oxidises (looks like a powdery grey mould)... Landrovers are prone to this through Bi-metallic corrosion (steel + aluminium coming into contact with each other) e.g steel rivets in ally skin... I used to work on Navy Lynx heli's, they were really bad for corrosion with all that flying over the sea....

You would have to be very hard to please if you weren't impressed by that demonstration. Of course always better in someone else's 4x4 ;-) but none the less quite amazing.
