We thank the members of the public who called 999 for the Coastguard straight away, which enable a swift and successful outcome for the casualty.' 'If you're heading out on the water, even the most experienced of us can get caught out by the conditions. Always wear a lifejacket or buoyancy aid, carry a waterproofed means of calling for help and tell someone ashore of your plans.
