This Boat Is Unsinkable : Thunderchild XSV 17 The Unsinkable Boat

[@michaelgcoleman471]

History demands the "Bounce it off a iceberg" test.

[@trevoC132]

And the 12 drinks in test. Those two things seem to take most of the ships.

As soon as someone says unsinkable nature says hold my beer and procedes to sink said boat

"she's made of iron. I assure you she can sink!"

[@patrickbodine1300]

"Unsinkable boat". Haven't we heard that before?

[@seniorcajun]

I think they called it the Titanic ....... Didn't to they make a movie about it ....... Sinking

[@Sepulchrave88]

From the perspective as someone who maintained electronics on boats, you'd need to service/repair any antennas on it after rolling. Better than sinking for sure, but there will almost always be damage.

[@craigcooknf]

Quite a lot of work went into that!

[@swagmanandy]

NO BOAT is unsinkable.

[@Dabocado]

Not with that shitty attitude.

[@tristc6909]

Prove it

[@alancattelliot4833]

I think that there is a misunderstanding from the author of the video. This boat is a self righting boat. There is no "unsinkable" class or certification in Marine.

[@amochswohntet99]

When you wait around for a bad storm before going out on the water 😂 awesome boat

[@David-nu6kw]

I say never say "Unsinkable" I learned this from those who have served in the American NAVY.

[@DanielParadis-sr5nh]

Wow! Fantastic boat, thank you for sharing!

[@starwolf3020]

I love it !!! It looks like a Spaceship !!!!!!

[@oldtimer2192]

I might have missed them but where are the seating harnesses? If it rolled over, sure it would right itself, however you’re going flying around inside to endure some fairly serious injuries!

[@tommyzDad]

Perhaps a more accurate description would be "un-capsizable"?

[@arno-31]

No.... it will capsize. It will also right itselves afterwards...

[@hashtagtnt]

Hey good luck with your channel sending my support and best wishes.

[@malakyah8691]

I heard that before. "This boat is unsinkable." Boat sinks on first voyage.

[@davidbutton8575]

"Thunderchild", eh? If I remember correctly, that's named after an ironclad warship in sci-fi novel "The War of the Worlds" It sank. 😁

[@snoochpounder]

Always nice to see the children of great ones step in their parents shoe steps. Wonder if the boat from thunder in paradise is still going that hard as well.

[@julesbailey6770]

Jinxed the f-- out of that boat right from the very get-go

[@jamesmcfarland8444]

Cool. The 47' Motor Life Boats that the USCG can auto right themselves and have been in use for a couple of decades now.

[@Yukikazehalo]

Old video, they made a larger Thunderchild II with quad V12 engines and the Voyager T-2000 catamaran.

[@justinneill5003]

The unsinkable feature isn't new. RNLI lifeboats have been designed for years for the same purpose, in fact new additions to the fleet are deliberately capsized during the testing process to ensure that they right themselves, before being approved for service.

[@johanea]

The same was claimed about RMS Titanic. A collision sunk her…, is this ship impact proof also?

[@Tech_savers67]

Yes, the Thunderchild boat is impact proof also it is composed of strong Fibre reinforced plastic which makes it extremely durable and light in weight and "the vinyl ester resin used in the boat has high resistance to both water absorption and chemicals."

[@johanea]

@@Tech_savers67 Well yes, I was actually sarcastic. No matter what fibers, plastics, reinforcement or resins used, During impact under speed and all the inertia against a rock under water, a structure at sea or a steel vessel. The composite material will tear, rip and crumble. UVB radiation will weaken it too given time. But sure, it would probably take some time to knock it apart using a small hammer or rocks and muscle power.

[@markrichards636]

If it floats it sinks...

[@johanea]

@@markrichards636 Indeed possible, yes. No such thing as unsinkable or indestructible.

[@adrienrassat1965]

​@@Tech_savers67 This industry is rife with bad engineering, false advertising and crappy boats. This comment is a perfect example of why. It's not impact proof, and it can sink. And something tells me Safehaven Marine have neither tank tested, cfd tested or even submitted their "designs" to any reputable architectural firm, which explains the strange-looking hulls. They are certainly eye-catching, and perform somewhat predictably in controlled marketing-driven tests, but I'm very skeptical of their overall seaworthiness.

Unsinkable! did they not say that about the Titanic?

[@Chris-vp2lm]

Weebles wooble but they don't fall down, but they wooble a lot sideways to the waves and you can't always run straight into them. No footage of it in that surf taking waves from the side. Wouldn't look good tumbling several times and popping back up again?

[@Aussie-nd7si]

I wonder now with foils so prevalent with sailing yachts, will this cross over into power craft like this.

[@olivierderuiter4776]

Probably not, as these power boats are going above 50 kts which is near the true max speed of a foil, that’s where cavitation starts to occur due to the water boiling on the hydrofoil, you see with bigger ocean racing yachts that they are partially foiling, which is very efficient, especially out in the ocean, where you can’t change that stuff, and it needs to be dead reliable, I think it will be a while before we see true powerboats on hydrofoils, if ever

[@BRuas9080]

Foils don’t work in very heavy seas like the ones shown in those video

[@Manjivt]

I'm pretty sure this boat was in a movie in the 80's or 90's with Hulk Hogan, Thunder in Paradise.

[@Petequinn741]

[@rodleypumpkins4174]

I feel like we’re pretty advance for this to be a new thing. I hope it doesn’t get sunk by an iceberg.

[@user-gn6uc5dn6u]

If you haven't hit an iceberg in it you can't say it isn't unsinkable. Especially if it's fiberglass!

[@gc99289]

100ft breaking wave will make it very sinkable. It'll just crush it like a can if collapsing on it. Those waves crash big liners bows.

[@ВикторАбакумов-в4з]

[@LIONTAMER3D]

Surest way to sink a boat is to start referring to it as "unsinkable" & that's a scientific fact.

[@Kingtrollface259]

I like the reference to war of the worlds😂

[@terrarecon]

02:30 what is a range of 750 nautical miles per hour of flight??

[@holidayinn4293]

My best guess is this is supposed to say that the boat has a 750 mile nautical range. You get what you get when non native english speakers run scripts through machine translation and then have it narrated by a machine voice.

[@terrarecon]

@@holidayinn4293 Yeah, you're right.

[@Wardaddy51-50]

It means for every hour that you have it airborne over the waves you'll travel 750 nm.

Flat earthers should raise funds to buy one so they can go on an expedition to the "edge of the earth".

[@kallenavn2783]

So if it hits a shipping container floating in the surface at full speed, it can not sink?

[@nghiam8435]

I wish this boat was invented after 1975 , when VietNam’s war ended , because some boat people would benefit from it , that saves hundreds of thousand of innocent lives .

[@MarbIe_]

Hmm where have a heard a ship called “unsinkable”🤔

[@patrickflanagan317]

All boats can sink if the water is deep enough, its just basic physics.

[@RamnRamn-du1fc]

If it's full of stryafoam ?? 😮 Enough with holes won't sink. Hello ?

[@jackucthatjack5896]

What would deep water have to do with it??? That literally makes no sense, and is not " basic physics " 😂 For example. If u put a sealed empty plastic bottle in the water. It doesn't matter if that water is 2 feet deep or 2000. It's still gonna float no matter how tossed and turned it gets. The only way it will sink is if it becomes unsealed. Same with this boat. If water can't get in. It will float.

[@7cyber]

Here engeneers mean about boat instead of boat with open-ear idea. But you is stupid gloomy that.

[@1PITIFULDUDE]

Boston Whaler takes issue with that statement.

[@pihermoso11]

​@@RamnRamn-du1fc even if the boat is made of styrofoam, any boats with enough direct hits from an Exocet missile will send it to the seabed

Doesn't look like a half as smooth ride as a Rafnar. And those self right too. This one is nice but probably way more expensive for something "unsinkable."

[@DRONEALD]

In the rc world we say this boat is selfrighting. Hey's still sinkable, lets penetrate that thing to check

Which is about 100 kilometers per hour, like it was said in the video? Or are you just translating for Americans

[@SurfingTubes]

It's magnificent, an envy of the sea, amazing, and fantastic for a rescue operation. However, to say it's a low impact "war" vessel, with that poly resin material, one high powered handgun could disable that hull for a long time.,, that boat ain't bullet proof.

[@hotlanta35]

[@stevemellgard6393]

Ever heard of a torpedo???

[@patrickflanagan317]

Ahhhh if the water was say 10 mm deep ie shallow,it probably won't sink. But DEEP water can claim any vessel. And by the way really really deep water should this foam filled flunkie be unfortunately to make to crush depth then all the styrene would be crushed out of the foam and she would plummet to the bottom like all the other Unsinkable legends. Case in point, The Titan,

[@patrickflanagan317]

As a boatbuilder and yacht designer, I would say something like this. This boat if holed has enough built in bouncy to stay afloat . But I guarantee given all resources available this boat could be sunk.

'Unsinkable' is impossible by the laws of physics. Do we never learn from history. Hit a neutral bouncy submerged 40ft shipping container at 40kt and no hull will survive. This is an impressive vessel that no doubt is less sinkable, but no vessel is unsinkable.
