    No slings, no travel lifts... just plop 'em in the water and hope they remain upright...

    Click on "Launch of new Mackinaw", then click on lower right corner "Video Launching"

    Wow, thanks. :)

    So the hull on that vessel is deigned with a fair bit of ice breaking in mind?

    How would she go in heavy seas compared with a 'normal' hull?
