Brand new??? It looks like a 59 plate to me, just about scrap age for a freelander
probably and insurance con! 
On a more serious note, that boat looks pretty big to be launching on a muddy beach with a freelander , I don't think I'd be trying it .

I think it's the best place for it....
The boat looks canny tho....
On a serious note, imagine the crack in the showroom.....
Of course it's reliable.....
It'll pull that boat no problem....
There the best on the market right now...
Sand...are you kidding..this will get through anything..

I've come close my self on a couple of slipways.
The slip at Girvan is so steep just seeing your car at the angle gives me the hebie gebies.
The smell of a burning clutch never helps.

Hey! don't slate the Landrover, they're very good on fuel. I could go on a run of 30 miles and back and only use 1 gallon of fuel...........mind, coming back regularly on the back of a breakdown truck might have helped.
