Easter Saturday walk from Gosport Life Boat Station to Gilkicker point past fort Gilkicker.
The lifeboat of the Gosport and Fareham Inshore Rescue Service is independent from RNLI. The lifeboat was being launched for an exercise as we arrived at the carpark.
Fort Gilkicker is a one of the historic Palmerston forts around Portsmouth Harbour. Gilkicker was started around 1853. Built at the eastern end of Stokes Bay, Gosport, Hampshire England to dominate the key anchorage of Spithead.

I wonder how good that boat launching device works in waves. Which is probably everyday I’m guessing?

I have seen other ribs launch in bad weather the landing seems more problematic in waves!

I suppose a breakwater would be out of the question?

There yes. Some places they launch at harbours but then you have to get past the end of the breakwater.
