They brought a 20 year old Italian student on board and brought her back to the Lifeboat Station where Lifeboat first aiders treated her for mild hyperthermia. The Lifeboat returned to the scene and found that the power boat was being towed by another boat. The lifeboat stood down and returned to the station.

































Such amazing men and women and so undervalued.
