und auch noch nebeneinander.

The topic seems to me too serious for hearty irony. It also has hardly anything to do with my video clip. Your comment only shows the apparently hopeless situation in which the doing and not doing of our politicians and Putin's war of aggression have brought us: to the edge of our existence

@@RuthMcCormick That is no irony!

What from Ireland or Wales 😂

They try to launch with in 10 minutes of the pager going off

This Mersey-class lifeboat costs around £350,000

Well, I guess it's quicker than driving a boat from wherever the next deep harbor is.

If you were one mile off shore they would sent their Inshore D Class boat (Rib)

This is an exercise launch. Service launches are a more brisk and robust affair!! Good point though, 💯

Save your ass? Are you reckless in the water?

Says someone that knows zero about time ans distance to scene. Do you realize how far the USCG responds to calls. Some take hours to arrive on scene. So have a glass of STFU and carry on.

Im guessing you know nothing about rnli procedures they cant just jump in the boat and throttle upto full power and hope they are going in right direction 1 when they arrive at boat house they have to get changed into the protective gear 2 once aboard they need to power up the vessel and ensure everything is at operating standard 3 the navigator and coxswain need to plot and set the coarse 4 get the antenna's up and locked in while the boat is being wheeled to the water 5 they have to get into enough depth of water and release the retaining chains and wait for the trailer to clear from under it before throttling up or they would damage the hull and trailer 6 depending upon which station it is eg next to a beach where people could be on surf boards or swimming they cant just hurtle off till they have cleared such a point where there is no risk of hitting something or some one or they are in a harbour they have to keep slow or if they went full speed in a harbour they would cause damage to moored boats and put lives at risk which would be caused by the wake one other thing as well the tractors only go at a slow speed due to the weight and the risk of accidents (they are not race cars designed to go fast round a track)

check the plate at the end of the video. this was during a visit of the queen an the station.

Yes, but in some locations building a slipway launched system is impossible, hence this system which is still very effective.

How would you suggest then ?

The whole village comes to watch. By the time it gets in the water and the motor started the people they hope to save have disappeared.
