Saving Lives at Sea
For every RNLI crew member, the first shout is just the beginning of many firsts. On the south western tip of Ireland, Castletownbere crew member Donagh faces a baptism of fire on his first ever shout as the crew carry out a dramatic rescue of a fisherman who's suffered a suspected stroke. In Burnham-on-Sea, on the Somerset coast, the crew are called out to a Mayday from a houseboat that is sinking fast. In Newquay, a surfer has been caught out by the stormy seas and is struggling to back it back to shore. And in Northern Ireland, the Carrybridge crew face an unusual challenge: a cross-country trek to rescue three French fisherman whose boat has broken down on a small island.
