Lifeboat and coastguard rescue 11

A strong offshore wind led to a huge rescue operation in the south of the Island at the weekend.

Port Erin Coastguard and Port Erin Lifeboat went to the aid of 11 people who were caught out by conditions at sea on Saturday.

The lifeboat launched four times to help people in imminent danger.

RNLI volunteers are urging people to be prepared before hitting the water, adding some of those they helped hadn't realised the danger they were in.
