What? They had the engines burning before launch? Obviously, I know nothing. Wow. No. I can't imagine the wave or the noise. I had no idea that this was how they launched ships. Sideways? I guess so.
yeah sideways is wierd..guess it was shallow water...
Or the ship is launched into a narrow waterway. Is(was) common method on the Great Lakes.
Anon, thanks for the info! That fills in the holes.
I bet it was scary as hell to be on it right then.
Hang on!
Very cool! Those are factory smokestacks behind, right?
Looks like it to me.
