MCA News


A couple of news items from the main MCA web site...

1st a message from the Minister about the bank holiday.

Next comes a serious incident from Cornwall, very similar to the incident we had in Studland Bay where the owners of a boat fell out and didn't have a "kill cord". This incident involves a father and son who were hit by their boat twice.

If you are out this weekend and using a powered craft, please ensure your "kill cord" is fitted correctly.
