Our ambulance boat is going to be retubed 20th of August, we are looking to hire a trailer if anyone knows of someone who can help. Needs to be suitable for 7.5 meter RIB
Nice evening at Fowey Gallants Sailing Club helping to train their members lifesaving skills for their Public Access Defibrillator we installed earlier this year.
Nice day on the water yesterday providing medical cover to Channel 5 “5 Go Caravaning”. Where Colin Barker and Tony Blackburn appeared to have a talent for gig rowing!
Another great local marine based charity, Sea Sanctuary, are making waves in mental health work. Check out their new Arc, a very worthy cause and fantastic asset for the community.
