RNLI B Class Atlantic 85 Lifeboat and Talus MB-4H Launch Tractor

**WORKS BETTER WITH INFINITE ELECTRIC DUE TO BATTERY CAPACITY - REVERSE ON LIFEBOAT NEEDS WORK**



Description and History:
The Atlantic 85 is part of the B-class of lifeboats that serve the shores of the United Kingdom and Ireland as a part of the RNLI inshore fleet. The Atlantic 85 is the third generation B-class Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB) developed from the Atlantic 21 and the later Atlantic 75. The Atlantic design of the B-class of lifeboats is named after Atlantic College, where the design was originally developed.

Developed jointly with the RNLI, the Talus MB-4H is the first tractor to be specifically designed for the task of launching inflatable lifeboats.

Stormworks Lifeboat & Tractor:
Helmsman has buttons to start/stop lifeboat and turn on lights along with various information screens. Button next infront of Navigator will turn on/off systems. They also have access to a powerful search radar/map plotter. Radio Operator has powerful multi-channel radio to use for communications and behind them there is a fourth seat for an additonal crew member with emergency beacon locator. There are 10 survivor seats on the floor of the boat. Aerials at the back of the boat can be raised and lowered for storage.

Access is gained via the hatch on the cabin roof. Systems are labelled in the menu which include reverse with turning seat for better visability. Tractor can wade up the the top of the windows (where an depth alarm will sound).

Much like the real boat she can only cope with up to Force 7 seas in day and Force 6 at night.[en.wikipedia.org]

Planned Work (no particular order):
- Try and improve range of both vehicles.
- Potential use small diesel engine in the Talus (If feisable)
- Create Lifeboat station to house tractor and boat
