Maritime SAR

Translated video description:

The first rescue boat of a new 8.4-meter class of the German Maritime Search and Rescue Service (DGzRS) is being put through its paces. Among other things, it has to prove in a capsize test that it - like all DGzRS rescue units - is a self-righting vessel.
Three units of this class - all with aluminum hulls and jet propulsion - are designed in cooperation with the DGzRS by Arctic Airboats in Finland and manufactured by a special Finnish boatbuilding company.
Like their seven-meter predecessors built in 1993, these sea rescue boats will be launched via the beach. They are stationed on special trailers, also newly constructed, in our mostly historic rescue sheds in Wustrow, Zingst and Zinnowitz. Powerful John Deere 6R 230 tractors, specially converted for maritime use, will take them to the field, either to the open Baltic Sea or to the widely ramified backwaters of the Bodden and Haff.
