Go right in cos you've already served your time in Hell'

Yeah seen a doco at freemantle maritim institute US coastguard heavy weather coxswains training.Imagine doin that for your rec ticket HAha.Good stuff Dan.
Not bad considering that they were being helmed from the flybridge!!
US Coast guard model boat training video for money raising IMO. The skipper and Gilligan of the boat are onshore wih a beer in their hands and if not and it is fair dinkum they should (crew) should always be refered to as "Skipper & Gilligan and get payed a sh#t load more than they probably get.

I thinks its awesome how they can right themselves and keep going, surely the blokes on the flybridge would have to have like a racing harness style seatbelt?
Yep USCG training boats... would love to go out in one for a ride.....
Yeah who needs a deck wash when you can do that.
I havent seen that before.
What an incredible rush that would be to be on board.
It would have to be pretty freaky the first time you rolled though.
So could you call these vessels "unsinkable" in anything that nature could throw at them?
