PORT ISAAC, August 8, 1987: two anglers, cut off by the tide when they clambered to remote rocks north of Hole Beach are picked up by Port Isaac's 16ft D class inflatable lifeboat, earlier alerted by Hartland Coastguards. The alarm was raised at 1631, after the casualties had been seen waving a red bait box to attract attention. The lifeboat was rehoused and ready for service at 1735, having landed the pair unharmed at Port Isaac. photograph by courtesy of Alan Kogerson.
