Lifeboat Capsize test

Belo trabalho 👍

In operation, do the twin Caterpillar diesel engines cut off automatically once the vessel reaches a certain degree of roll?

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👍

Imagine it all went wrong and it sunk, pancaking the cabin haha. Impressive nonetheless.

😉👍👍

This is absolutely beautiful? I've actually seen this but had been told they could do this? Being an Ex-Fisherman on trawler,s, I love these women and men? They really have saved so many live,s? I love you all, Jesus be with you all Amen Selah X ❤️

Safe as house!

Did you know that the knights templars had ships that could re right themselves .
And they worked in the same principle as the life boat does

The templars used them to get to France for the crusades, and they had to invent something like this to move large amounts of men across open water to protect them so they could fight .
The templars were very advanced and they mapped the world by creating these unsinkable ships

The templars actually traveled to America by unsinkable ship and mapped America well before Columbus .
Templar ships were many and they held 100 men each
It is nice these boats exist , it is the least a life saver deserves for their troubles helping others .

Фрэнк,что ты сделал с судном это невероятно.СПАСИБО.Ты и твой экипаж моряки с большой буквы.Это что то.😊

"Do a barrel roll!"

I was sunning myself on the beach of Porthdinllaen on the Llyn Peninsula, back in June 2023, is the stunning weather.
Once of the most picturesque beaches in the whole of Gwynedd, i didn't realise they had a Shannon moored nearby.

Those really awesome amazing boats I remember one sank around Christmas time in the 80s I think they were trying to save I do his wife and their daughter off of brand-new ship best I remember

I presume these are crewed by about 4-6 volunteers (some 500kg or so). How does the self-righting go if those volunteers have been tossed when the boat is inverted onto the now ceiling of the cabin which is now down the bottom. Just curious.

I would highly recommend Let Not the Deep by Mike Lunnon-Wood. Deep water rescue with 50 foot waves. It's an awesome book.

Hopefully they would be strapped in their seats.

The only boats where you have to antifoul the roof too 😂

Correct procedure and describe properly I have change the wire same method

This kind of fast rescue boats have been tested for decades. And the design is quite the same as the first unit. They are amazing, sturdy boats made to last. Usually have twin engines each 1000hp and up. Crew is professional, highly trained seamen. Risk is very high. All sailors are very aware of these RNLI units along the British coastline. Look as pilot boats, in fact Ireland mastered in this kind of boats, in Carrigaline, Co. Cork, many were crafted, the factory now closed. Rough seas in the English Channel, the Irish Sea and the North Sea need this kind of boats. In Atlantic France and Northern Spain there are similar services, the Bay of Biscay is a really cruel sea. So is the northwestern Atlantic coast of Galicia, from St. Andrew of Teixido to Vigo, called “the death coast”, “A Costa da Morte”, “La costa de la muerte” that includes Corunna, Ferrol, Betanzos…. The Spanish Rescue service and Coast Guard have also most skilled crews of able seamen. Glory to them who risk and lost their lives in their formidable task. Sometimes assisting novel sailors in distress. The sea is not a calm dinner table.

God bless all those who serve and have served in the RLNI in whatever capacity. Inspirational.
Greetings from Gibraltar.

now test it with 30 people on board

Yeah but, what if it capsized in less than ten seconds? Pointless and expensive test in my judgment.

I have seen several video's exactly like this showing the righting test of these boats. I am a skipper for the Australian Volunteer Coast Guard here in Melbourne Australia and I would love to have one of these boats stationed here as they are fantastic but alas our government won't coff up the money for decent boats...

Well there is a millenia of boat knowledge in one vid. The UK do the sea the best. Hats off

Insane

This is the coolest sailing channel on YT

Wou...!!! Es como un PATO en el AGUA.......Extraordinario. Felicitaciones. RNLI.....BRAVO ZULU..
.

Oriental Trading rubber duckies, take notes.

Good girl

For what stupid reason are they doing this?.

may God bless the lifeboat crews around the world !

What a beautiful boat

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Come if going capsize it not going to do it in slow motion

What’s the hull made of?

"Hey lads, the boss is out for the afternoon but he left the keys to the boat behind... thinking what I'm thinking?"

Is this how it works the top is lighter then the bottom

In rough seas I would think it would be quicker?

Question asked. Question answered.

Did they remember to drain engine oils? Or is there now a mess in the bilge/engine compartment?

I hope they let all the engine fluids settle back down before they restarted the engines.

Ironic

go to 3.28 cut out the crap

Mantap

God, you wouldn't want to be on the toilet at the time!

Why so slow? A rogue wave could slap it upside down in less than a second, shouldn't it be tested against that? Pick it up 5 meters and drop it upside down.

Absolute 🙏🙏

Occupants and equipment better be strapped down. Or i can guarantee plenty of concussions.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I was there that day watching this from the Devon Samson (that's the floating crane) I was part of a fire crew when she was in use, I was actually trying to spot myself lol but think I was watching it through the cabin window 👍
