I just read somewhere recently 4 crewmen died during training when their boat went up on the rocks. Showed pics of the smashed boat too. F'd Up!

We go surfing down there and have seen those guys going out when the onshore gets blowing hard. It looks insane but I'd love to go for a ride in it.

WOW. Some incredible shots there. I remember they took delivery of one of those 47 footers at the Manasquan CG station about 3 or 4 years ago. They are badass boats. My fav:

I graduated from the Motor LifeBoat School in December of 1990 and spent three years driving 44 MLB's out of Station Chetco River. Looking back it really was an incredible experience, I used to fish out of Ilwaco with my dad and got my first glimpse of the Coast Guard on those fishing trips when I was very young. In 2000 I took delivery of a brand new 47 in Slidell and delivered it on its own hull to San Juan, Puerto Rico…just another incredible experience I was fortunate to be a part of. |

That's the one....Very sad....Look how well the boat held up after a pounding like that. Anything else there wouldn't be anything left. |
