Scary for the launch vehicle driver. I’m surprised some have questioned the way the lifeboat is launched. My guess is that the RNLI know what there doing folks. It’s not an untried and unproven method.

That tractors must have a snorkel for air and exhaust. Also wiring well insulated lol. That was awesome. I thought the tractor was going on the resume as well. Awsome brave guys 👍.... Respect to all RNLI people out there.

You can see the Snorkel just behind the cab where the driver is sitting. For the exhaust. The engine is sealed with hydraulic shutters getting air from the snorkel

I think for safety they should have a rope or winch line attached to the tractor from the shore for recovery purposes just in case of mechanical failure

There is already a long rope and a winch attached to the tractor that connects it to the trailer. If the tractor bogs down, it can ditch the trailer and make its OK way out.

I think they could have timed their entry a little better. Maybe running in during a trough instead of a oncoming wave. But it seems obvious that the tractor was made for this with a watertight cab and solid ramp underneath to drive on.

Our shoreline has a sandbank, possibly at the time, he was thinking of pushing the trailer over the bank but its up to the boat when they want to leave the carriage. The beach is changing everyday. Hope that helps.

Ya, they need a much longer trailer tongue. There is no reason for the tractor to go that deep. The tongue could be so long it would need a set of wheels in the middle to keep it off the deck.

LMAO! They have to be kidding, right? It would have been better if they built a sea wall about 200-300 metres from the launching area to protect boats on the ramp than launch or retrieve boats in choppy water. A sea wall, either made of large rocks, or concrete blocks could help calm the water at the ramp and you don't have to risk any injuries by being smashed with the boat while trying to retrieve it back on the trailer. I have a speed boat and know how difficult it is to reload the boat back on the trailer, especially when idiots on their personal water craft speeding in the vicinity of the ramp are creating choppy water. Try it, you will understand what it's like when idiots are churning water around you.

It looks backwards, but coastal launch have a long history, choosing the tractor trailer give them the ability to operate from the sand anywhere, problem here being that the time they need to go out is when the ocean is the worst. they can launch form the best spot and time the launch. *the obvious option is a long track for the trailer, but that was done for some years and have mostly been abandoned, guess it did not rock the users that much.
