A boat that size can not fit close enough to the carrier too on or off load is what I'm saying. The flightdeck overhangs out way too far too allow it. Also the hull extends outward the further up you go. An optical illusion kinda like the F-14 fly-by picture off the America.
I've spent a lot of time on those boats tied off on a utility boat at a boat boon. The boats are not at the ship. No way.
Seems like we departed the ship from the stern or starboard side. But, tje shadows.
