What happened NEXT?

Tobermory Lifeboat Station’s Sam Jones tells us what occurred minutes after this photo was taken: ‘A post rededication ceremony selfie with two coxswains and a chairman. Minutes later the pagers went off and the newly rededicated Tobermory lifeboat headed off on a 60-mile, 5-hour shout to a fishing vessel with engine failure to the west of the Small Isles. An eventful day and successful in all respects – the crew even came back with a bucket load of fresh langoustines from some very grateful fishermen.’
