6th – 7th June 2010

Saturday:

Crew put the vessel afloat and informed the Coastguard of our operational status, the only incident had Hamble Lifeboat (sister unit) tasked to it and we closed down at the normal time.

Sunday:

Solent Rescue was on active service and completed two active patrols of the Western, there were a few capsizes of racing class dinghies off our look out, the boys were on the boat and were requested by the safety rib in attendence if they could stay around until all were righted successfully and on their way.

No intervention was required.

Later in the afternoon, Solent Rescue lookout zero’d in Hamble Lifeboat to a casualty vessel where the skipper had suffered a broken arm.  With thanks received from Hamble after the event.
