They also make the wildcat now after buying the rights from drew bowler. They even made a military version with a remote control gun system on top.

That's a damn good pic that.

 

And that's a secret weapon the RNLI have been working on for a while.

 

The problem they have had is the Severn class lifeboat is 45t, no current beach launch vehicle and trailer is able to launch it.

 

And a lot of beach stations really need them for there's. the rib and Trent lifeboats are just not good enough anymore.

 

So as the below picture shows its for launching a 45t boat off a beach.

 

Where was the pic taken?

 

Its actually in supacats build/storage yard at Dunkeswell Rich and just come out after having been sprayed up after build so not got any info really.

I go in there about once a week so may pump and see if I can get some further info or more sneaky pics if poss and its still there. Noones said I couldn't take pics but obviously with what they build I have to be a little careful.

You would be scared as to how many of these they have.

Makes me laugh as "health and safety" make them wear a bike helmet when they road test them...

I can get you as much info and pics as you want. They have one down at dungeness lifeboat at the moment. They are doing trials with there's and the new Shannon at the moment.

For those who have not seen one, this is a beach launch.

 

As can be seen here, its not always easy.
