26th - 1st July 2010

Saturday

Vessel was launched and the lookout manned throughout the day, due to the fine weather Lepe Country Park was extremely busy, so whilst the vessel was on patrol, land based crew patrolled the 1.2 miles of shoreline to the East.

No notable incidents to report and the station closed down for the evening.

Sunday

Crew arrived on station for a day of service, this included giving a number of new crew a bit of area familiarisation.

Again, another busy day (Until 3pm) for the park.

Solent Rescue remained on station until the normal shutdown time, whereupon the vessel was returned to trailer and shut down.

 Monday - Thursday

Crew were on station throughout the week, completing maintenance and renovations to the station and trailer equipment. Many thanks to Sue for her sterling effort in the ops room, Mr Sheppard for popping on down to sort out a few bits (rather that than let me have a go and break something… again) and Andy for letting him in.

Top drawer ladies and gentlemen.
