Monitoring

On Monday, we were called to Studland to monitor a yacht with engine failure, before the Lifeboat arrived.

Looking at the weather conditions we had the slightly easier task of just driving along the beach monitoring the Poole Lifeboat and yacht until they safely arrived in the harbour.

The National Trust staff kindly delivered a cup of tea to us whilst the lifeboat attached the tow line, and I suppose holding a cup of tea whilst driving along the beach was the nearest we got to the crew of the lifeboat in the difficult conditions. (I never spilled any and just to confirm I was not driving at the time!)
