Hemsby Lifeboat was paged at 8:07pm last-night by Humber Coastguard to reports of a day-boat with 6 persons onboard (4 x children) experiencing engine issues. Our Broads Lifeboat was launched at Ludham Bridge and in the fading light the casualty vessel was quickly located. A tow-line was attached and the vessel was transported back to Ludham where Winterton Coastguard assisted in mooring up along-side. The Broads Lifeboat was then stood down.
Once again we would like to remind those enjoying the Norfolk Broads that the majority of those who drown in the UK never intended on entering the water, please keep safe and always wear a life jacket when on deck and mooring up.

Hemsby Lifeboat were paged at 21:50 last-night to reports of red distress flares being fired in the vicinity of Oulton Dyke. Our broads lifeboat was launched at the Water Sports Centre and proceeded to conduct a search to the Waveney River Centre where we met up with the Gorleston Coastguard Rescue Team. The crew were then requested to conduct a search to Castle Marsh, but again nothing was found. Shortly after it was deemed the area had been searched thoroughly so without any further flares to guide us, Hemsby Lifeboat and Gorleston CRT were stood down by Humber Coastguard. On returning to the lifeboat station, the crew were greeted by 5 of our newer crew who had stayed back until the early hours to help clean down, great team work, much appreciated!

Hemsby Lifeboat were paged today at 5:15pm to a small open Broads cruiser that had suffered engine failure and subsequently drifted a fair distance into a shallow broad near Hickling. Our Lifeboat was launched at Cess Road, Martham and proceeded to the casualty vessel. Because of the shallow depth & reed beds the crew experienced difficulty in attaching a tow line but after a few attempts they were able to tow the vessel free. Once we could make their boat safe, the casualties (including a child) were taken onboard the lifeboat and delivered back to Cess Road, where they were met by Winterton Coast Guards who ensured the passengers were returned safely to their holiday cottage. We then returned back to the vessel and towed it to to the casualties holiday cottage. The crew were then stood down by HMCG. This was a technical rescue which tested the crew but it was a great outcome in the end. Many thanks to those who stayed back at our station to help with the wash-down and to Winterton Coast Guards for their support during the rescue. ??

14/08/2019 Team tasked to work alongside HM Coastguard Lowestoft CRT in a search. A member of the public reported an object he believed to be a body in the water, to the Harbour Master's Office ( Oulton broad ). A search for a body was later called off when it became known that there were no reported persons missing. A false alarm with good intent?? #095/19
