Rescue of sinking catamaran
The 2012 Round the Island Race on Saturday 30 June turned out to be a busy day for RNLI in Lymington, Hampshire, U.K. The crew responded to four shouts, including a sinking catamaran whose crew were in the water.
The charity's volunteer crew was on patrol during the race, which is now in its 81st year, when they were called to assist the capsized catamaran with eight people aboard. Six were transferred to a large catamaran that had responded to the mayday, and two evacuated to the harbour.
