Some action from Barrafundle Bay, South Wales last weekend. As far as we could make out, one of a party of kayakers had some sort of medical problem(the group had an empty kayak when they came past later). The lifeboat turned up and took them on board, and then the helo arrived about 15 mins later.

Down came the winchman, followed by a stretcher. He was obviously rather busy as the helo landed on Stackpole Head for about 20/25 minutes. They then went way out to sea for the pickup. Something to watch as we had lunch.

Any follow up would be appreciated.
