Dusk recovery: Minehead Atlantic 21 ILB, returning from exercise, is caught by the arrester net rigged on her trolley. She is manned by Helmsman Chris Kundle, Crew Member Peter Smythe (to starboard) and Crew Member Peter McGregor, who is also a helmsman (to port). The Atlantic 21's drive-off trolley forms a mobile dock by means of which she can be launched from an exposed beach in any sea condition to the limit of her operational ability and recovered safely; the arrester net halts the returning boat in the correct position as she is driven into her trolley.

The photograph was taken by Crew Member Dr Bryan Stoner..
