Just talk...

Here's a chance for you to just talk. Not about something I've written just about things that you'd like to know. The Inshore Lifeboat First Aid kit, perhaps. How to go about visiting the boathouse, if you like. Whatever, just ask by leaving a comment.

To be honest I'm sometimes struggling to remember exactly what I have and haven't written about in the past so feel that there may well be large gaps in what I have told you about our boats and crew. So, feel free to: ask questions, answer questions or make comments.

Somebody hurry up and be the first to say or ask something!

Let's talk. Let's have fun. Let's discuss out how to save lives at sea....

How about where we fitted in in the statistics of launches/rescues for the first 6 months of the year compared with other stations around the country?

Hi John
2 questions, Is there a loo on the ALB?, and because you have advanced first aid skills, do they call on you at school to deal with incidents?
all the best to you and all the crew

How does the school deal with you rushing off to pull people out of the sea at a moments notice ? At what point in the job interview do you mention this requirement ?

What made you want to become involved with the lifeboat, and how did you become involved. Were you always boat crew, or did you start helping in other ways?

Thanks for all of the comments everyone...some great ideas and I will post replies to all of them over the next couple of days.

I've just taken delivery of a new PC so am busy installing software and uploading photos. Let me know if anything is amiss or doesn't look right please!

What has been your most scariest rescue/incident while being onboard a lifeboat?

How do you pass the time on long 'routine' jobs such as a long tow in

Hi John,

How do you choose which crew to take on each shout if more than needed turn up at the boathouse? Is it down to experience or a mix of the novices and the hardened crew?

Thanks
