Edited by: Digitalfox on 21/12/2007 22:17:50 A storm im Morro Bay California kicked up some pretty big surf on December 4th 2007. The Coast Guard station took this opertunity to get some surf boat training in. Durring the tranning a 30ft wave of breaking surf collided with the 47 foot motor life boat.
Here is a series of photos depicting the out come. A friend of mine is the engineer on bored and this was his first time doing operations in the surf. There where no injuries and no damage to the boat. The 5th picture shows the 47 at a 90 degree vertical angle and if you look you can see the bow of the boat sticking straigt up and the mast sticking out of the wave verticaly.

i bet those li***uards were glad their ships are designed to be almost impossible to turn over. Looks very spectacular, and probably quite wet. Must have been an interesting ride.

Yes! Coasties for the win. They haven't saved my ass yet, and I hope they never do, but let's hear it for a military level force that exists just to directly help the citizen.

THe 47 MLB (motor life boat) is desined to be self righting (i.e. it uncapsises it self) and self bailing (i.e. it drains its bildges). It is vertualy unsinkable. However once a boat rolls like this, its mission over. Generaly people get hurt and boats get damaged. By the grace of god no-one was hurt and the boat wasnt damaged. Keep in mind engines arnt made to run upside down with out dumping oil all over.

Well maybe if they had diamond fusion engines they wouldn't have that problem. I heard the Marines are throwing out all their diamond fusion engines. Something about how they're too reliable, and they're putting professional Marine mechanics out of a job.
Maybe the Coasties could get a deal on surplus Marine equipment. "Never used constructively, and only driven like it was stolen." Meh. Scratch that. ----- TANSTAAFL

My favorite element of comedy is the callback. If the Japanese knew how to execute that technique (or, just as likely, "if I knew how to appreciate the Japanese execution of the technique,"), I might watch more anime. ----- TANSTAAFL
