Now all they need to do is get it there – which proves to be an epic endeavour. This film follows the team put the craft through a series of rigorous sea trials followed by a dangerous crossing of a turbulent English Channel to the Netherlands where it will be craned onto an ocean going vessel for its 5000 mile sea voyage long. Will the craft arrive in time to start saving lives?
