Shannon Class RNLI Lifeboat - Beaching Recovery at Dungeness
Vložit
- čas přidán 5. 08. 2019
- The Shannon Class RNLI lifeboat at Dungeness demonstrating a beaching recovery, hitting the shingle at about 20 knots and then being winched onto the carriage. which includes a turntable to spin the boat round ready for its next launch
That is the one big advantage about the Shannon class lifeboat. Firstly, it is jet powered. Secondly, because of the design, it can leap out of the water and onto the beach without causing any damage.
What an impressive piece of kit. Great work as always RNLI. 👍

Absolutely AWESOME, so much respect for all the RNLI 👍
disgusting way to treat any boat, especially when the public pays the bills.
It's designed to be able to do this. Safest way to get ashore in rough weather, and quickest if time is of the essence for a rescued person.

My dad was the head launcher in this video (Ian Bolton), sadly he passed away from cancer in April 2020. Unfortunately, we lack videos of him as a volunteer helping with the RNLI, is it possible for you to send me this video?
Very sorry to hear that, and I'd be happy to send you the video. Please email me at mikepepler@gmail.com to make arrangements.
Very sorry for the loss of your dad.
I lost my dad few years ago to cancer as well.
I’m sorry for your loss
Sorry for your loss!!
Brilliant recovery well done to all involved and thank you for the commentary 👍😀❤️
Awesome job for all the lifeguards everywhere 🏆 although I was impressed by the boat, I have to admit that rig the boat is up on caught my full attention 🤔
That would even make the Royal Marines want to have a go, amazing hardware
Damn that went further then i thought
In all honesty there is some serious coin here just in the recovery equipment
The boat costs £2.3m and the SLARS (Shannon Launch and Recovery System) costs £1.5m
That's one way to scrape the barnacles off your bottom
They did say it may shorten the life of the hull... But I think they only do it for high tide recovery.
You're right, I think they normally back the trailer into the sea. But because of the shingle bank, at certain states of the tide it may be more difficult to do that. Especially in bad weather, as you said.
You been spying on me again?
Yes
Took the words straight out of my mouth Jesse..... damn sight cheaper than regular dry docking
Awesome bit of kit!🇬🇧👍🏼
Love the Shannon class I have loved ones names on both of memory boats
Nice boat trailer can swing 360°
Yes, very impressive piece of equipment!
Nice to see these brave people get the standard of kit they deserve...
I have a small boat at rhy let’s hope I don’t need these great guys 🤔 but it’s nice to know they are there 👍🏻❤️
Fingers crossed
RNLI, because even the Royal Navy has heros it looks up to.
Nothing to do with the Royal Navy. Checkout the RNLI website.
@@SilverWrinkly Yeah I know. What I'm saying is even the RN has it's heros. Those heros are the RNLI.
@@oldthrasbarg641 Your comment still reads as though you're saying the RNLI is a branch of the RN?
@@SilverWrinkly oh well balls. I'm only a sailor what do I know
@@oldthrasbarg641 Now you've made me feel bad. I'm sorry I got you wound up. Sincerely, I wish you a Merry Christmas.
wow, that’s amazing and clever to do.
As old seaman nice to know things like this exists to safe people in case of emergency. Can safe life in rough sea. On this round peddle stone is ideal to do show, on sea sand the glide will be very much shorter I assume,.... but more impact for people on board :)
Its a marvel of British engineering!
Awesome 👍
Сразу видно что не наши Наши бы сразу на плотформу заехали
No dock for it there, the shingle moves every year.
The boat rotates on the trailer... what the... ?
Then it's pointing the right way for the next launch...
Amazing
I bet they made damn sure there is no large rock hidden underneath those gravel.
Yeah, the shingle is very deep there, so not much to worry about. I expect they check for driftwood with metal embedded in it though!
Well thats new, havent seen this type of thing before
Fantastic
Thats my culmination of my docking attempts
😂
Позавидуешь прогрессу! I envy progress
That is really cool!
Does the shale and pebbles not ruin the underside of the Hull, after so many times?
Yes, but they recoat it with some abrasion resistant stuff regularly.
Very brave people that do that job
I'd love to see one of them new tractors
They're very impressive! I think they use the same engine as the lifeboat itself, to simplify maintenance, though just one while the lifeboat uses two.
Amazing ⚓️
Try doing that with a Severn!
Is this actually Dungeness's boat? Thought they had an Atlantic?
They got a Shannon boat in 2014, one of the first few deployed.
You may be being confused by Littlestone, which is only 3 miles down the coast, which has an Atlantic. Littlestone are just beyond the northern edge of the shingle area of Dungeness, rather than at the tip of the ness, with Lydd in between.
Hi, can I use the audio from this video for a student project I'm working on about lifeboats?
Please email me at mikepepler@gmail.com to discuss.
Awesome cool
Awesome 😎
At what point are the engines shut down ?
Before they hit the shingle? Though you can see water still coming out the back once it's beached, so I'm not sure.
@@mikepepler The boat is jet powered, so although the engines are shut down before hitting the beach, there is probably still quite a quantity of water to drain from the pumps.
The diesel engines need a time period to cool down,, primarily the turbos. The jet pump shafts are stopped before hitting the shore, just some water is still going through the pumps. I sure hope they get all the loose gravel out before relaunch.
Amazing!
Some bit of kit 👌
2021..still doing that...maibe in 2050 they get it down to science
I would think the hull would be worn down by doing that quite often. How thick is the hull & which material?
I don't know the construction details, but I doubt they do it often. Occasional training and then actual emergencies I guess.
I talked to some of volunteers at the station a few days ago. Apparently they always land the boat by beaching it, it's the only way at this site because of the gradient of the shingle. But a normal landing is less dramatic than this one, which was a special for the open day. The crew regularly repaint the hull with a special paint containing kevlar to cope with hitting the shingle repeatedly.
Good job.
Very Strong machine
Yeah yeah, you can do that in any boat. Once.
Well thats one way to scrub the barnacles off the bottom...
😂 They have to repaint it with some abrasion resistant stuff quite frequently!
Number 13 classification. Shannon.
Wonder if anybody was thinking of the theam from thunderbird's
Is that not bad for the gelcoat? Does it have some kind of special hull material?
I think so, though maybe they resurface the hull? I don't think they do it very often, normally the tractor will be able to recover the boat.

@@mikepepler I found out recently that the boat has Polyurea coating.
I gather that's used on canal boats too.
@@mikepepler Probably can be but i don't think it's widespread. Barges are made of steel and rarely exceed 4mph.
Looks cool but isn't the bottom scraped with the gravel??
😳
Must be. It's built to take it, but I assume they don't do it too often - I think this was a case of combining a training exercise with a public display.

Γαμάτο!!!
That was cool
У меня только 1 вопрос: Зачем и самое главное Нах.....я так делать?
Mechanic must get sick of pulling rocks out from the jet drives!
I think they may cut the engines before it hits the shingle? They also don't normally land this fast, bit of a special for the open day.
А теперь нужен спуск на воду этого баркаса!)
Kinda bad ass!
How can this hull survive that?!

Thunderbirds are go!
does it also work on grass or sand?
I guess it might, though they'd probably be more damaging to the hull, as the shingle can move as the boat hits it.
@@mikepepler amazing
It does.
@@CymruEmergencyResponder thx
It's the batmoboat
Why?🤔
In rough seas and depending on the tide state this is sometimes the safest way to land. This was a practice, of course.

Ok . They have qualified for jetboat sprint. Hehe!

Doubt they do this often
Here's how they turn it round. czcams.com/video/bBzrxh3ZkgU/video.html
No wonder they need donations , treating the hull like that
It's built to take it, it's the only way to come ashore at Dungeness. But they do have to repaint it with a protective layer regularly.
Can they not builds docks?
There's no need for a dock here, Dungeness doesn't have a lot of people or industry, apart from a nuclear power plant, and it has a railway to it. And there are harbours a few miles away east and west of here. So they wouldn't go to the expense of building a dock just for the lifeboat. But presumably this is the spot the lifeboat needs to be at to provide coverage for emergencies.
Any sort of dock would have to be built hundreds of meters inland because of the shifting stones over time, it wouldnt last long . And would cost millions.

The water can be over half a mile away on the lowest tides…
A dock would be pretty useless, and so would the lifeboat.
You can consider the warranty void 😂

Which is because
Sometimes this is the safest way to get ashore, especially if they're in a hurry.
Not good for the glasscoat🤪
In mediteranean we are building and using ports since middle ages. Every single smallest town have port for boats. Please let me somebody explain why you are using beach for launching and recoveryng boats??
Very few people live here, not enough to justify a harbour. There's some fishing boats, but they launch directly off the beach too, using a tractor or a winch. The lifeboat is here because it's sadly a busy area for people getting in trouble at sea.
in the UK we have tides ...
Good point! Significant tidal range here, such that the harbour in Rye is only usable for a few hours each day.
😊😊😊🤝🤝🤝👍👍👍

Hull replacement after every three beachings !! 🤣🤣 NO hull will withstand that punishment for very long. Hopefully this is just a demonstration of what it can do in an emergency only... but then... without the cat track tug and trailer... no way of getting back into the water...so...😖
They said they do it if they have a critically injured patient and need to land fast and/or the sea is rough enough that crew operating the trailer would be endangered by the boat. I doubt they do it often
@@mikepepler That makes perfect sense.

Can you do that on the French side to take the migrants to to closest safe place rather than bringing them all the way back across the channel from French water ?
A fair point, but the RNLI just focus on saving lives, they don't discriminate based on nationality, skin colour or anything else.
The RNLI land them in the UK for a reason.
@@CymruEmergencyResponder what's that reason ? As it had most the country fuming
Depends who you know. Most people I know aren't fuming, and I live nearby.
@@danhurley6152 landing them in France means that they would try again, meaning twice as many call outs for the lifeboats, putting further strain on the charity. Landing them in the UK means that they can have their asylum claims heard and processed.
These brave people really deserve our support, I've been giving ever since i was old enough to earn and i have left a substantial portion of my estate to them, that was until now. I will never support them again. I'm sorry but it's the RNLI not the RILI, National not International. Stop empire building.
I expect my donations to support the British not people in Africa and elsewhere, if you have so much money, help those that need it in the UK those that work tirelessly on our behalf, not those abroad. Giving Burkini's to those in Africa makes a mockery of those brave soles that regularly risk and to those that have given their lives to save those in the UK seas. For example Penlee and others. Its a bloody disgrace
It’s the charity that saves lives at sea, there not going out there and asking for your passport before they rescue you, what makes you think an Africans life is less important than an English life. In the words of a brave world war 2 veteran “fuck off Hitler”.
fuck you!!!
@@dogfood61188 Sorry but what the hell don't you understand about money donations from England staying in England to save people in England??
@@bazzer621 OK ill go slow for you. The RNLI is the charity that saves lives at sea, that's kind of there motto. There not the charity that saves lives in British territorial waters, or the charity that saves the lives of British passport holders. The RNLI is the charity that save lives at sea. They never lied to you and said there only going to save British people or that the money will only go to British business or cause, in fact if you looked at there annually published cost break down you would have seen them clearly telling you that a tiny percentage of donations are spent saving lives outside British territorial waters. Saving lives in foreign countries also provides crews with valuable training and opportunities for inter-agency cooperation, skills and techniques that those crews bring back to the UK. So in answer to your question i suppose that what i don't understand about British money from donations staying in England to save people in England is why you believed it would. Although I suspect that your views are driven more by your own racial prejudices than common sense and facts, i still hope that things are a little clearer for you now Barry.
@@dogfood61188 I'll go even slower for you it's called the Royal National Lifeboat Institution for a reason and it's about time they stopped lavishing our money outside the UK! I for one will never donate any more money to them until they stop sending it abroad! They have the best of everything and I don't begrudge them that but sending my money abroad is a no no to me! It's about time we stopped giving money to everyone who asks for it! Charity begins at home! Just a silly question are you called "dogfood" for a reason? 😂😂😂🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Macie w kurwę kasy żeby niszczyć
It's built to take it. Just needs repainting regularly.
These are the guys who save people but don’t want to talk about it or receive any attention yet there constantly on t.v biggin themselves up 😂🤣
Let's hope you don't ever need them then fella
Yep
They could’ve just left it in the water and saved millions of pounds of taxpayers money…. Takes the fucking piss
The RNLI is not funded by the taxpayer. There is no where to just leave it in the water so it is recovered back to the boathouse. No piss taken.
What a dimwitted comment, you clearly know f*ck all about anything to do with the rnli
Spot on.
Fantastic
That is awesome!!!
