Well the free fall lifeboats I've been in never did that! Thankfully! Perhaps a variety of factors, seems to be I'm ballast quite high out of the water, also strange how it nose dives so much, perhaps badly distributed weight onboard the boat....Comment

Quite a tidy landing, we'll execute flip, though the amount of splash let it down. Oh, and the fact that it's not supposed to do that... 4/10?

My dad used to say strewth, not a word I hear now he's gone, I thought it was because of where he came from ( Bristol / Bath) don't think that's where you're from though is it?Originally posted by Chiefy View PostComment

Well well you learn something new everyday, his brother played the organ and he had to do the bellows three times on a Sunday and during the week for him. Maybe it's was a church thing then, he spent a lot of time in churches, though rarely ever went near one once he left home, said he had enough as a youngster!Originally posted by endure View PostComment
