Jsplace Posted June 18, 2011 Report Posted June 18, 2011 Blatantly stolen from the WSF site but..... If I ever try something like this please take my boat away. Quote
Rob Posted June 18, 2011 Report Posted June 18, 2011 Phew! I woudl want a bit more speed \ power to control the boat! Actually, i wouldn't want to be there in the first place! Quote
great white Posted June 18, 2011 Report Posted June 18, 2011 Bugger that Interesting narrative "Once we were committed we had to keep going" They ought to be committed To St Annes My brother had a slow boat simular to that but a little smaller, caught in poor weather against tide in the bristol channel it took 45 mins to get past the end of Brean Down headland in big seas [nowhere near as big as the ones shown here]. He laid the boat up after that and never got his enthusiasm back. Quote
Brian Posted June 18, 2011 Report Posted June 18, 2011 (edited) The skipper looks very relaxed towards the end, sitting there with his arm resting on the window sill. Edited June 18, 2011 by Brian Quote
codpiece Posted June 18, 2011 Report Posted June 18, 2011 The USA coastguard/rescue service actively seek out these conditions off their atlantic seaboard for training purposes!! I am with Charlie, the words should be committed are spot on. Derek, V, Quote
