Exmouth: On Sunday June 12 Exmouth D class inflatable lifeboat, manned by Helmsman Clive Harris and Crew Member Christopher Douglas, launched to help a 14-year-old boy cut off by the tide on the rocks at Orcombe Point. Helmsman Harris first tried to anchor and veer down to the casualty but the anchor would not hold. He then tried to come in to the rocks but breaking waves and swell made control difficult. Finally he made a running pass, calling on the boy to jump at the right moment. The boy was successfully taken aboard and landed at the lifeboat station..
