Flamborough RNLI Help Rescue 17 People Cut Off by Tide

Flamborough RNLI lifeboat launched at 12:14pm on Bank Holiday Monday following reports of up to 17 people cut off by rising tide at North Landing.

On arrival on scene at 12:20pm 2 volunteer crew waded ashore to assist casualties back to safety.

Two people had managed to get ashore without assistance leaving 15 casualties including small children still cut off.

The volunteer crew assisted the casualties back to the beach and all 15 were safely ashore by 12:41pm. After a final check of the area, lifeboat and volunteer crew were stood down and the 2 crew members returned to the lifeboat.

Lifeboat returned safely to the station at South Landing at 12:55pm.

Volunteer crew and shore crew washed down, refuelled and prepared the lifeboat and launch tractor for the next service.
