KAYAKERS CAUGHT IN ROUGH SEAS

PORTAFERRY | 12 NOVEMBER 2015
At 12.38pm, the volunteer lifeboat crew at Portaferry launched to the aid of three kayakers caught in force 7 winds and rough seas. When they arrived on scene, the crew found the three kayakers huddled together and clinging to a makeshift raft made of
their three kayaks as they were beaten around by the sea. The RNLI crew pulled the three men and their kayaks aboard the lifeboat and took them back to shore safe and unscathed.
