Kiwiboyd - Please tell me that they didn't buy from you!



Otherwise, they really didn't listen to any sort of instruction given at delivery.

no they didn't

The video is no longer available, I presume this is the SRMN video at the local ramp?

I just returned from New Zealand, I was sent this vid by email half a dozen times from guys in the Dept.

The video is on YouTube if anyone missed it. I think we found it searching under police launching boat. It has been around a really long time. I think the video is over ten years old.

Makes sense. I believe the date stamp on the video was 2000. The youtube link that started the thread was dated 12/2013 though.
