Iv seen how you launch Terry!!
I wouldnt!!nearly as bad as watching welsh warrior,launch his boat into 1inch of water at weymouth!!hows your gel coat dorian!!LOL
Drop test!!
Yes thats right --- Drop Test. The LLoyds insurance register call it that (I'm not sure if its a common term though), it's used to prove the integrity and strength required on e.g. offshore rescue craft on Oil Rigs and the like. I understand other boats are tested in the same way. They drop boats from a set height (depending on the type of craft) and they must survive without damage and then certificate them accordingly. Thats how I basically understand it. Somebody will correct me if I am wrong no doubt.
I done a droptest on my old 160!!undone the winch,then decided to pull forward fast!boat just flew off onto tarmac!
Did your rod get out aswell,or did it stay in the carPMSL!
I think so too!. The reason I'm asking is that there is an almost identical shallow jetty at Taynuilt on Loch Etive. At high water, the end of the jetty gets covered and it would certainly be an easier launch than the existing arrangement.
It might look a bit hairy, but it does work well on that gravel slope!
go on gordon, it's easy, did you see the pics of me and the boy blunder at dunbar a while back??
