Beach Rescue
A woman who went out to sea in an inflatable dinghy with no oars, lifejacket or mobile phone has been rescued by IW Council lifeguards.
Andrew Robinson and Kyle Draper, who were on duty on Sandown beach, spotted the woman in trouble over a mile out to sea on Wednesday 28 July.
Andrew swam out with his board to the woman and attached a rope to the dinghy before swimming back to shore. He was constantly watched by Kyle from the beach.
The woman, who was from Africa, was unhurt and expressed her thanks to the lifeguards for helping her. She was reminded by the lifeguards of safety tips before going out to sea.
Isle of Wight Council cabinet member for the environment Edward Giles said “Yet again our lifeguards have demonstrated their professionalism and dedication by rescuing this lady, who was caught out by the tide and had no way of calling for help.
“All our lifeguards are highly trained and spotted the woman in trouble even though she was over a mile out to sea”
“Had they not been so alert, the lady could’ve been in serious difficulties”
