27th May 2014 - Looe RNLI - Shout 19.

In response to a call from HM Coastguards in Looe, the D Class inshore lifeboat D-741 Ollie Naismith is launched to assist a person in difficulty.

In strong winds he has fallen of an inflatable dingy which has blown away.

I managed to catch some of the action from Hannafore.

THere were a couple more inflatable dinghies out there but they were unable to get close to the person in the water.

You can find out more about the RNLI and Looe Lifeboats on their websites.

Here is a video of the rescue.

Using inflatable dinghies is very dangerous,

please

do not take any unnecessary risks.
