Have you ever seen life boat crew fight to get on the boat? I am 100yds from the lifeboat station.
I think the other reason they did not go out was a/ because it was two windy for the d class b/ if you put a offshore lifeboat next to a cork 1720 in these condition it would do as much damage as hitting the rocks.
