Well sometimes when all else fails you have to resort to rather offbeat "solutions". ;)

Reminded me of this for some reason...

Also, I can't believe that's how those ships are launched! When I saw the first video, I thought something had gone wrong and it was sliding toward the water by mistake. I guess as long as nothing binds up, it's a sound way of doing things. I would have thought there was some sort of ramp with rollers or something which would allow ships that big to go bow-first into the water. Cool vids.

They have been doing it like this for hundreds of years.
