It better be a good door, and not a design copied from North Sea car ferries of a few years ago.

I have some old knowledge of recovering RIBs and other inflatables up ramps. It really is about ideal. The trimaran requires positioning under a crane system, then being yanked up by some wires. While this is far better than a single-point crane or even side davits, it still leaves a lot to be desired.

But I’d love to T&E it. Oh, yes I would. I envy the SEALs adn SWCCs who are assigned to play cowboy on that T&E, working all of the bugs out! I imagine dropping from the wires while underway is a blast.

But all four lift points better release at exactly the same time. Imagne if an aft wire “hangs up” for a few seconds after the other three lift points have let go. Underway.

That would get sporty. Still love to try it.
