$2.5MM? Suckers. I could have bought that for $2MM with my 20% off coupon from Harbor Freight.

Boggles the mind. Surely it wasn't their first boat. You'd think they'd know how to launch the thing. Or better yet, have a crane system.

 

[Red Squirrel]

Oh right, China built it. I was going to guess White Star Lines for some reason.

 

[Anonemous]

Why didnt they pull it out before it went too deep?

It has a pretty shallow hull for launching at a relatively steep angle, not sure what kind of magic the guy though was going to happen.

I would of been questioning the abilities of the people launching the boat when they suggest using maybe $2,000 of equipment on a muddy shore to launch a $2.5m boat (the inside must have gold plated walls and ceilings.)

$2.5 million for that piece of crap? Suckers!!!

 

[highland145]

Maybe it's yuan.

Heck, any ATOTer could get it free with their magic ATOT Super Platinum Credit Card points!

I love how the ass end of the boat is sinking, water is flooding the main cabin, and they keep on pushing it in...

hahah yea that's the best part. They're still pushing even though its clearly sinking/filling with water.

marked for home

Wow. I've never seen a ship launched from an empty lot before... where was it constructed?

First step in building a ship. Build a ship yard.

Maybe they read Alky's thread on professional boating tips prior to the launch?

How much should one tip a yacht?

Sidenote: yacht is an odd word.

 

[magomago]

give it 30-50 years and we won't be laughing in the same way we do now. They'll learn and quality will improve.

Definitely less than 15°

Could be very true, many don't remember how shitty Japanese products were in the beginning, and look at where they are today.

That is what happens when you use craft glue instead of epoxy !
