yes scary stuff that is

i have assisted twice on trucks have have been in the same suituation

a lot to be said about going up there in a small group because in booth suituations the trucks would of been swamped like that guys had it not been the fact there were other around to assist straight away

i glad it was not a total lose for the chap

Would have been horrible to gradually watch it slip deeper and deeper into the tide.

Been there, done that

They got off a lot lighter than I did.

Would be been keen to see him recover it from the end? Or did he just drive it out??

I went up Muriwai a few weeks ago and the tide was coming in... i was pretty lucky not to get stuck. i had a couple of waves come over the bonnet... woops!

Learnt my lesson

That guy was lucky the rope didn;t give way the first time she slipped. Glad for them they got out, I know that feeling of nearly losing a 4wd to the tide, and wouldn't wish it on any 4wder!
