New power boating school!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[powerskipper]

Now I have wonder long and hard on what would be the ideal school boat, and I think I have found it.

You would be dry and it is usable in all weathers.


You could pack lots of students in,,,,, £££££££

But oh dear , just thought of something , what happens if someone FARTS in that.

OH dear ,,,,,,,,Back to square one again!!!!!

Is'nt that the Warsash Nav school training ships life boat(s)?

 

[peterandjeanette]

I've seen the launching ramps. F***ing would be least of your worries!!

 

[powerskipper]

Yes it is, they were out yesterday.

They really do drop those things off 45* ramps on the sterns from deck height, don't they? I can't help but feel if you need to get away that fast, you've probably left it a little late... I can understand it on gas/oil tankers, but general shipping?

I've always thought it looked a bit dangerous. Just imagine there were loads of injured folk being dropped from a dizzy hight!

 

[whisper]

It is done in the interest of equality - after launching everyone is injured - "all in the same boat"

Yup ... and not leaving it too late .... Walk onboard and sit down, strap in and be quiet .... Starts with a rumble throughout the boat as you move along the rollers, followed by a strange silence as you fly though the air, and when you hit the water, it is actually suprisingly soft .... the momentum from the fall, and the boyancy drives the lifeboat away from the mothership... been there, done that and got the gray hair....

you would not drop those boats in the first part of this subject.....
