Amble RNLI called out to rescue two people struggling on a paddleboard
An Amble RNLI crew on its inshore lifeboat (ILB) was called out last Friday to help two people struggling on a paddleboard south of Coquet Island due to strengthening offshore winds.
As detailed on the lifeboat station’s Facebook page: “While underway the paddleboarders were spotted near the south tip of the island.
“They were brought safely aboard, where both were feeling the effects of the cold. Casualty care was started and both were monitored as the ILB returned to station, where they were reassessed and warmed up.”
