Shout: Person Cut Off By Tide
By James Dorey | August 6, 2002
Launched 16:50, Rehoused 18:10
D Class launched in response to a report that a man had been seen on Bridgemarsh Island waving for assistance. He had walked ashore after making frequent attempts to kedge a 17ft bilge keel yacht off the mud and had given up as the boat became increasingly fast and eventually then dried out.
A member of the LB crew ran out his anchor for him and the LB then took him back to Burnham Yacht Harbour.
