CONCERN FOR TWO PERSONS AND DOG ON PILGRIMS WAY AT HOLY ISLAND.

Posted on by

At 10:28hr Seahouses Inshore Lifeboat was requested to launch as a precautionary measure, following a report of two walkers with a dog, attempting to cross the Pilgrims Way from Holy Island with the tide rising. High Water at Holy Island was at 12:21hr that day.

Local Coastguard teams from Holy Island and Seahouses were also tasked. As the Lifeboat approached Holy Island, the coastguard teams reported the walkers were safely ashore at Holy Island, so the Lifeboat was stood down and returned to station after their first call of 2020.

RNLI Seahouses eagerly awaiting the arrival of their new Shannon Class AWL. The Shannon program has been very successful, bringing specification, design and construction, launching and trials all together in the new RNLI boatyard facilities. For RNLI Seahouses the Shannon will offer a number of significant advancements in their capabilities. Notably, the 25 knot speed will be a major advance, helping them respond much faster and the waterjet propulsion will another big advantage enabling them to operate in much shallower water. Then there are all the advances in electronics and both comfort and safety for the crew……….SARN Ed.
