In a Marine Emergency Please Call 999 and Ask for the Coastguard - or Call Mayday on Channel 16 on Marine Radio
If you feel someone is in danger or distress, we would rather be called out than not at all, we can often prevent a situation from getting worse with some friendly advice or help.
A callout where we are called and not required is generally classed as a 'GIFA' Good Intent False Alarm, we'd much rather attend these than attend a more serious incident later
