    Agree, but the beach is no place to learn! Esp when lives are at risk.

    Good training film.

    First thing I would have done was to unhitch the boat trailer. Didn't see the shovel being used a lot, either.

    Tyre pressures......enough said.

    Would a slow winch pull have helped or would the suction in the sand make it nearly impossible.
    Not sure if shovelling would help too much, seeing the surge of water every few seconds would have tighten the hole up quick smart.
    Just curious as I would like to attempt a beach launch at Flinders. And Murphy's law is like a fly on shit, he likes to stuck around and annoy the hell out of me.

    Think IMO a bit more shovel work, well a lot more shovel work and less pointing.
    There was more than enough man power there but way too many clowns, sorry I mean
    chiefs and not enough Indians. I thought it was going to end with all 3 bogged ,Bugger.
    Would be great vision for what not to do evening.
