those noisy high speed long tail boats must be very difficult to control, the skipper sits at the back and once underway the bow of the boat is raised high above the water line obscuring the skippers view forward, and the faster they go the higher the bow rises. he probably never saw the ferry.

thank fuck for that.

That's quite impressive.

Looks like a photo from that 999 TV show when some bloke's head gets impaled on a fence.

Never wise to allow the childlike in charge of dangerous equipment, may lead to nipple rash and other untoward outcomes, there was a geezer on here made a washing well out of sewer I recall ?
