With summer drawing in, and weather becoming increasingly adverse, it is vital to remember the importance of staying safe at the coast. Most people that enter the water never indented to get wet.

If you see anyone in trouble in the water, dial 999 and ask for the coastguard.

@VisitSouthend And as always, our volunteer crew will always be available to lend a hand if you or your family get in trouble along the coastline at Southend! Dial 999 and ask for the coastguard if you see someone in distress.

**TASKING**

After an hour and a half of searching, nothing found. Both vessels returned to station.

The inshore D class was launched today to assist a kite surfer in difficulty at the Shoebury Boom. The person was taken on-board the Lifeboat and handed to HM Coastguard CRT.
