Caught in a loch

10 November 2012: When a fundraising swimmer’s support boat broke down on Loch Ness and began to drift onto the rocky shores, the skipper wasted no time in calling for help. The volunteer crew from Loch Ness were on the scene in 8 minutes, finding the swimmer onboard the support boat being given a warm drink and dry clothes. Despite worsening conditions, the vessel was towed back to safety.
