Launched 17:01, Rehoused 18:00

Both the Atlantic 75 and IB1 Lifeboats were launched to reports of a vessel overdue.

The Lifeboats were tasked to search the Rivers Crouch and Roach and also Lion Creek for a 14ft sailing boat.

The Atlantic 75 Lifeboat located the vessel shortly after launching  and after ensuring everyone on board was safe and well they returned to station and the vessel continued on her way.

The ILB also returned to station and both boats were refuelled ready for their next service.
