Nice video. Bouncing off the walls as usual. Actually BD, it looks very maneuverable. Nice job Commodore.
I hope the grappling idea works. That is always the difficulty, hanging on the the sub in tow.

If anything the rubber bumpers will protect my Toot in case you plan on making her your next target Crash!

Re: Search for the perfect rescue boat!

Yes Dave I will agree with you the new system is great but the Photo posting is a job for the experts.

Blimey Dave, what's going on with that 8-ball signature image? It's absolutely massive.

Not sure what you mean Andy?
It looks the same to me. BD.

Re: Search for the perfect rescue boat!

Well here is it.
The first open water test of the Toot at the YMCA.
Very happy am I!!
You can see at the end I tried to swamp and even submerge her.
I think with 12V I could.
The bumper gripped the boats great.
I tried three rescue attemps and all were a success.
Not one drop of water inside.
Even Crazy Ivan was impressed.
My work here is done. BD.

Re: Search for the perfect rescue boat!

Very nicely done!

Perhaps add some scuppers to allow the water on the deck to drain?

Re: Search for the perfect rescue boat!

Yes I am going to do that when I build the cabin. Not sure how I will go with that yet. BD.

Dave if you switch over to the aeroblue board style you'll see it. The images in the signature area and even some uploaded pictures get very big.
