Re-boarding

On a slightly less political note, notice how all four guys were helpless when it came to re-boarding the RIB. A good reminder to have some kind of method in mind.

I'm not disagreeing with what they are trying to achieve - I just don't think that that was the way to achieve it.
I think the less said about caring for the environment on a rib forum the better, My boat runs around 5 miles per gallon and is used for selfish pleasure .

If the Guardianista tofu eating sandal brigade get hold of this fact, we will all be forced to go wind powered
