SAR Case Video

[November Charlie]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGvlCT3hYAI A pair of 47' Motor Lifeboats responding to assist a disabled Fishing Vessel taking 14' breaking waves right on the bow. At one point in the video you get an outstanding view of a three and a quarter nylon double braid line parting under strain.

Interesting video, but I kept wanting to say "Slack that F**king Tow Line". Too bad that boat doesn't have a tow winch that can be controlled from the flying bridge. Having to man handle that soft line looks very dangerous and eliminates control of the tow line once it is made fast.

The 47 MLB is built by some of the finest shipbuilders in the world at Textron at New Orleans, LA.
