At 15.47pm, we were tasked by H.M. Coastguard to a swimmer reported to be in difficulty off the beach at Budleigh Salterton. The Exmouth RNLI’s D-class lifeboat, George Bearman II, was launched immediately and was soon on scene. Following an assessment of the area, the swimmer was located safely on the beach, soaking up a bit of sunshine after his swim! This shout was classed as a false alarm with good intent and we want to thank members of the public for being so vigilant. When the pager goes, Exmouth RNLI is ready to go!
