    This is a fantastic training resource! (I speak as a former water rescue and ice rescue instructor.) The RNLI does a fantastic job with its volunteer force. It is interesting that the USA, which has such a strong tradition of volunteer fire and EMS services, has not, to my knowledge, developed anything similar.

      I know you posted this 2 years ago however ill make this known for future reference.
      The sound is actually the engines overrevving. Because water reduces the engines ability to turn the prop (water is thick and heavy) it means the engine is limited in its output. When the load is removed the engine can rev freely meaning it does this.
      This is similar to how a car rev's its engine instead of going up a gear.
      The reason why it stops is a safety feature and survival feature. When the engine flips the props will still spin leading to the chop risk. As for it stopping is so the engine doesn't ingest water and break as it is submerged. When an engine cylinder has incompressible liquid (water) taken into it the piston coming up to compress the fuel and water (water normally air) mix the water is incompressible. Often this leads to either bent piston rods, damaged valves and can lead to a serious engine failure.
      If the engine fails and your on a rescue/big sea. It ain't ending well even if you can right the boat as you can't turn into the wave efficiently.
      Most engines that I know of don't shutdown if overturned. This feature is also on most ALB's (All Weather Lifeboats) where if the boat rolls it seals any air vents (including those into the cabin) + sets the engines to idle to stop damage and maintain functionality.

    @Pooshooter5k The boats used in training are all ex-service boats which have been retired adn are re-badged for Training use only. The engines used for training are strictly segregated for that purpose and whilst by virtue of the abuse they get they are not 100% reliable it is amazing how well they do perform day after day. They get a regular scheme of maintenance to ensure a degree of longevity.

    Any engine which is capsized at a station on service or exercise is returned to our facility at Cowes and totally stripped down, cleaned and rebuilt to ensure 100% serviceability on the coast. For active boats at stations there is a rigourous planned maintenance schedule up to and including periodical major servicing in our engine workshop

    Impressive. Wonder if anyone makes a lifeboat who's hard case functions as a folding RIB hull. Great use of sound to scare the crap out of the crew during capsize. Only this kind of training teaches the most important lesson: it's OK to die scared but never die panicked.
    That self-righting mechanism is great but I wouldn't want to be the one crawling under those bouncing engines to pull the activation lanyard. Maybe it could be re-located more to beam than to stern.

    @nick123222 I'm guessing these training boats aren't expected to run well if at all since they spend so much time with the engines in the water. On active boats I would hope that each time they capsize they are rebuilt and inspected thoroughly after each use plus active boats I'm sure have a rigorous preventative maintenance schedule.

    Once they've righted the boat, they have to remove the spark plugs and turn the engine over to piston out any inhaled water from the cylinders. Then they use a set of new spark plugs in place of the old ones. Well, that's how we do it in Canada at any rate. Hope that helps :)

    A burning question....Is the self righting airbag on the Atlantic 85's reuseable incase you capsize again? If it is, are there several cyclinders or do the outboards repressurise a single one?

    • @rnli
      @rnli  7 років тому +3

      Hello. Thanks for your question. The airbag on an Atlantic 85 is reusable. There are two air bottles on board. In the event of a capsize, one of these bottles will be discharged in order to inflate the airbag. Once the boat has self-righted, the air bag can be deflated and folded up to be used again. The outboards do not repressurise the air bottles - the bottles have to be replaced when the boat is back on shore. Effectively, the boat could capsize twice in one exercise because it has the two air bottles - although this is unlikely, as if a lifeboat capsizes, it is likely to be taken off service. Hope that helps!

Unfortunately that good work has been eclipsed by the new role of the RNLI, to import illegal immigrants and fighting age criminal men along our southern coast. If the RNLI wants the public to resume funding for them, the solution is obvious.
