By this time a large crowd had gathered cameras clicked and there were cheers as the lifeboat crew arrived and ran into the boathouse and the rear doors silently and slowly opened, the crew aboard, the engines started and revved, the securing pin was knocked free with just one quick hit with the launchers hammer, there was a roar like distant thunder as the lifeboat sped down the slipway the crowd cheered as the lifeboat hit the water with a loud splash and the spray shot intn the air.
