Cover at the Bournemouth Airshow was again a success with members coming out to support the launching of Zulu to cover the Exclusion Zone patrols. Along with our colleagues at Poole we were able to provide cover Thursday,Friday & Sunday remaining on standby on the Saturday due to poor weather conditions causing organizers cancel flying until evening. Well Done to all those involved and a Thank You to Janet for looking after us all!

On Friday we covered the final Bournemouth Fireworks on board RLSS Poole Lifeguard Legacy, due to Zulu receiving maintenance at Rib Craft. The Fireworks Season has once again been a big success.  A big thank you to all Helms, Crews & those assisting in launching and recovering Zulu.

 

A big thanks to Nick and James 2, who braved the early start to cover the Poole Harbour Canoe race with our colleagues from RLSS Poole Lifeguards and the Poole MVS Crews. On land based Duties were Janet on First Aid and Steve O on Comms. The event was another success with all paddlers returning safely and with only one capsize !

 

As the summer season comes to a close training has resumed on a Sunday evening at Pelhams Park between 17:00 & 19:00.

 

Great evening down the beach as Members took advantage of the good weather. Rookie Lifeguards completed their Rookie Paddle Board Award, while also experiencing the Clubs Inshore Rescue Boat ZULU.
