The first pagers of the year sounded at 1.23pm as ALB Ella Larsen was gashed by HM Coastguard to the report of a surfer in difficulty spotted off Tywyn coast. In good visibility and slight seas, as Ella Larsen and her volunteer crew were pushing into the surf, reports over the radio, from the Coastguard, were that the surfer had made his way to the shore and the crew were stood down A false alarm with good intent. ALB Ella Larsen and her crew returned to the boathouse where she was readied for service by 2pm. We’d like to congratulate Kane Triggs on his first shout since joining the RNLI as snore crew.
