A call from the Coastguards at Great Yarmouth resulted in the rapid launch of the In Shore lifeboat to power to the aid of a Kite Surfer sp
otted in trouble amongst the offshore wind turbines.

By the time the Inshore entered the water the Wind Kite was no longer visible in the sky so a sea search pattern was instigated. The Surfer was located back on shore when a further call resulted in a search for a mysterious object at sea.......this turned out to be the missing kite sail..

Sucessful launch and a safe ending for all concerned.
