Outstanding rescue by the crew of R116 in very difficult conditions. The winch man particularly went above and beyond. Well done !!
Apologies Rescue 118 not 116. My bad !
Rescue 118 from Sligo, Rescue 116 is Dublin.
Fair play to all involved in the rescue, especially since our coastguard service is voluntary.
Coastguard voluntary??.Are you getting mixed up with the RNLI?
Correct
So happy to hear he’s recovering well after being reported a critical yesterday. Glad that he was wearing a life jacket which may have helped save him. Well done to the coast guard and recovery team.
They could put the football team on that island.would not be missed.. Flash in the pan team! !
Well, now he knows what the lobsters feel like when he hauls them up….
