LIFEBOAT LAUNCHED @1203 to reports of a person in the water off the East Beach, North Berwick.
The lifeboat located the casualty approximately 400m off the beach after being taken out to sea by a rip current. They had lost their board and were being supported in the water by a surfer. Our volunteers had to negotiate 1.5-2m breaking waves to recover them safely onto the lifeboat. They were both taken back to the station and checked over.
Without the actions of the surfer this could have been a very different outcome. Our thanks to them and the members of the public onshore. North Berwick Coastguard Rescue Team also in attendance.
The casualty had lost their board and therefore had no means of flotation in rough seas. If this happens to you, you should FLOAT TO LIVE; Lie on your back, spread your arms and legs. If you can, wave your hand and shout for help. Stay calm.
In any coastal emergency, call 999 and ask for the coastguard. ...
