Our RNLI are/is absolutely amazing, I come from Scarborough and have heard many a recollection of their heroic exploits. Fabulous heroes.

I went to Scarborough fair long before Simon and Garfunkel sang about it.

Thank you Dave for your praises of your local RNLI.

We couldn't manage without everyone of our devoted team members doing their bit no matter how small to make a difference.

We all are working on ways to improve our response times with further advanced rescue systems.

Plus the introduction of stronger impact advertising to get a simple coastal safety campaign programmes more successful each and every year...

Saving Lives At Sea is our first priority...But preventing the need of our services would be the golden key...that I've been searching for but sadly will never find....😢😢

As he looked out over the water he thought he saw body in the water so he took a closer look with his binocs and sure enough it was a person barely waving for his attention. He was alone and as he pulled along side he saw that it was a woman with a vest on who had fallen off the Canadian mine sweeper as she was painting on the sides of he hull, There had been a person assigned to watch for her safety but for reasons unknown, did not notice her missing status. The gal in the water was not in good condition and getting her onboard his boat was very difficult. Finally managed to haul her onboard but as one might imagine she was in shock and her body temp was very low,

Once it was determined where she had come from, they called the Canadian ship on Channel 16 and asked if they missing a crewmember as he had one of their onboard his boat. After a short pause the Canadians asked if he had a cell phone as obviously they did not want to broadcast what had just happened to the world. They arranged to pull into a close by port and pass one very lucky woman off to the Canadian Navy.

That is about as close to a near death experience as one would ever want to get on the water.
...Holy cow ...!! - Was she lucky he spotted her....!
