TENBY | 21 OCTOBER
Tenby lifeboat crew evacuated an injured man from a 135m container ship. One of the ship’s officers had a deep cut to his hand. He’d caught it in a door that slammed shut in heavy seas. The Coxswain of the all-weather lifeboat battled high winds and a sea swell to position the lifeboat close enough to get the casualty aboard. The crew tended to the injured man and were met by paramedics at Tenby Lifeboat Station.
