how nice to live in a country that looks after its citizens and keep their well being, by making a such state of the art facility to save lives. well done.
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.
That training is FANTASTIC, it does'nt get "more" realistic than that, EXTREMELY PROFESSIONAL, and organized Rescue crews, these are the people that are "Heading OUT", when everyone else is "Heading IN"....REAL "Surf Dogs" !
I cannot tell you just how much I appreciate the incredible work you and your members do, it makes me incredibly proud to see a big orange boat out in the distance, keep up the good work guys!
Now I understand why my son looked a little bit wrecked after returning from an RNLI 3 day course :) :) Uttmost respect for folks who put themselves forward for RNLI crew.
Thank you for supporting us! We have our Open days 5-6 September 2009 with: Lifeboat tours, Rescue demonstrations, Lifeguard / lifeboat displays, Sea survival pool demonstrations, Informative talks from the lifeguards and crew members. Hope to see you there.
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.
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.
@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.
+Jay Ritch (Jjonathanhart) It's well obvious by your comment to fail to understand the importance for such training .. it can mean the difference between life of death
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 :)
How hard can that yes ... clay video pity really full of struggle for the future of children and families my husband OPITO training tomorrow hopefully given the smoothness and ease amen
The country does not provide this protection. RNLI is a charity I am proud to support - receives no state funding. If you are looking to support a charity this is a great one❤
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
@brimstone33 its at the stern so that as its pulled, you push away from the boat and it won't land onto of you. if the activation was on the beam, there would be a 50% chance the boat would roll onto you.
Hi RNLI. Please would I be able to use this video as part of my educational video teaching young people about our voluntary emergency services. It is brilliant. Thanks so much
@@rnli amazing thanks so much. Would there be the opportunity for me to come and visit this amazing centre in person to really show our young people what the amazing RNLI crew volunteers have to experience. Thanks so much
Hi Alistair. In normally circumstances tours are normally able to be booked through the RNLI College. Currently due to restrictions these aren't taking place. Please do check back with us in the new year for an update.
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?
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!
Hi, what if you're in a job that requires you to be away from home for long periods of time? (i.e. Soldier, Merchant Navy, Engineer etc.) Would you still be able to volunteer as lifeboat crew?
You're absolutely right. I never thought about that. Yeah, the water would definitely spill over the edge of the pool deck with that boat flopping around. But that is a nice built-in-pool to have.
***** Dear SirWe, China Deyuan Marine Fitting Co.,ltd is a top supplier of lots of marine equipment&offshore equipment. Pls do not hesitate to contact us if you need any items.
Indoors, in a 12 foot deep swimming pool, with 20 other people around to save you if something goes wrong................yeah. Out on the high seas, where the water depth could be as deep as 500 feet, with unpredictable current, and less than 10 people to save you................maybe not.
Im looking into RNLI volunteer work. I would love to be a part of this organisation and save others at sea. Would be my dreamto be working with this sort of equipment.
+RNLI . I would like to join the RNLI, I am a former special force, life saver, diving instructor, Efr and First Aid, good marathon swimmer at least 5 km
hey ,if anyone else trying to find out survival guides free try Ichordo Survival Medical Fixer (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my m8 got cool results with it.
Hello! We are glad to hear you're interested in volunteering with us. To become a lifeboat station volunteer, you need to be at least 17 years old (with permission from your parents) or 18.
itanamullik But is your schools pool a training pool with all weather (wave, rain, wind, lighting and sound) simulation? If it isn’t then your statement was utterly irrelevant.
Ryan Oneill Id be surprised if you’re still using this account 9 years later, but if you are, how was/is your RNLI “career” (I know it’s voluntary, can’t think of a better word)?
Hi yomanry1 to be on the crew you need to attend at least one training exercise a month so unfortunately if you are aware for long periods of time you would not be able to volunteer as lifeboat crew. However, there are many different ways you can volunteer for the RNL, have a look at our website - volunteering. rnli. org/vacancies. Hope that helps.
My only wish in life is to die with a rescue team and make a sacrifice for the sake of the safety of others' lives. If you need me, I will be very grateful to work with your team and greet you from Algeria. Thank you for your effort, angels of the earth.
Why only as low as 20 °C? That is far from a real world scenario don't you think? I assume your cognitive abilities severely decrease when you encounter water temperature below 10 °C which is probably much more realistic for most accidents...?
The re-release of all of these old videos will not work. Yes, we all know that at one time the RNLI was the cornerstone of maritime safety around the British isles. 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.

Superb. Keep up the good work . You're always appreciated by us all.
They have the best kit known to mankind to create almost any sea condititons known to man. Its a fantastic location for training.......
Good point about being able to test yourself in your kayak in immediate weather conditions change along with the simulated rough waves.
I help build this place as a labourer looking gd thank u

Yes, The Sea survival centre is in The Lifeboat College, Poole, Dorset.
Hope I'll never need professional assistance of the RNLI brave people in rough sea...

when i applied last july 2009, it took the LOM a long time to get back to me. the wait was worth it though.

@EJL2004 the engines are engineered by the RNLI to restart after inversion/immersion. just a few switches to reset in the console and away you go! :)
I'm to old for crew duty, but my pennies love to go ,any time day or night!!

To be honest 4 meters is deep enough
You mean 4 feet?
+Jay Ritch (Jjonathanhart) you have obviously been there since you just have
Love the video where is it though
The expertise is amazing, considering they are purely volunteers
lol only started listening to the audio at the end, in time to find out how long it would take them to drink the pool!
That looks fun to do.

Hi my name is shaun and I am from edinburgh how would you sign up to be a volunteer with rnli lifeboats
How do the moter not get ruined
such a great training pool
This is awesome
love the RNLI
Did you get any further with your idea of volunteering? Is there anything we can do to help/any information you'd like?
Excellent.
that looks fun in the blow up life raft thing.. its like a tent on water. id like to do that but not in the ocean just in that pool :D
Couldn't agree more, Meghan!

hello, I am 14, is there any way I could get any sort of experience or do any volunteering work at my age? thanks
Do u no where I would have to go if I want to become a paramedic for next year
I just wanted to know... what age to you have to be to apply for the RNLI??
If you're still wanting to know, it's 17 with permission from parent(s)/Carer(s) and 18+ without.
@pocketnay The tent is called a liferaft
wow... that form stable lifeboat's weakness is countered by the additional floatable volume. It is upright! haha thanks
I wish we had that here in NZ
I think I'd quite like a go.
