IOM Coastguard - Search & Rescue.
Keeping people safe around the Isle of Man’s coastline

[TheCoastguardTeam @CoastguardTeam]

Christmas is a time for keeping in touch with friends and family. Keeping in touch is essential if heading out to sea so always make sure you have a way of calling for help. Mobile phones are good but VHF marine radios are better #999Coastguard #KeepChristmasSafe

[RNLI Penlee Lifeboat @penleelifeboat]

Today we remember the eight extremely brave, fearless & selfless @RNLI lifeboatmen, who made the ultimate sacrifice on 19th December 1981. Their courage, dedication, determination, valour & heroism serves as a beacon to us all. #ServiceNotSelf #GreaterLoveHathNoMan

One of our #volunteer #Coastguard Rescue Officers took part in the #IOMYoungFarmers Christmas #tractor run with his 2 tractors. 50 decorated tractors did a circuit around some of the islands towns raising money for 2 great local charities. #IsleofMan #YoungFarmers #Community

Further details of the #AmberWarning from our colleagues at #IOMMetOffice.
We will have safety patrols checking the coastal areas affected. If they give you some #Safety advice please take heed. We don't want you having a bad day through misjudging the power of large waves.

[IOMCoastGuard @CoastIom]

Keep safe folks.
There's an Amber weather warning for Coastal Overstopping. Affected areas include Shore Road in Rushen, Castletown Prom, Douglas Prom, Laxey & Ramsey.
Keep back from the shore & keep safe.

Thanks to @UKSARRescue936 for the opportunity to train with them this morning. A great safety/cab brief and high-line session in near gale conditions.

Nobody gets left behind.

A huge proportion of people who drown whilst intoxicated die because they fall in the water when walking alone at night. Keep you friends safe, stay together and make sure you all get home. #beamate #dontdrinkanddrown.

This succesful rescue was an excellent example of joint working between CGOC Belfast, MOC IOM, Port St Mary RNLI, Port Erin RNLI, HMCG Helicopter R936, Port Erin CG, Castletown CG & the local fishing vessel who initially recovered the crew from the water.
