Dysartian
Real Life Rescue Heroes at Dysart
Today we had an 8 year old girl and a 13 year old girl stranded on Partan Craig Rocks surrounded by waves. Our neighbour spotted their predicament and we took over as he had to leave for an important business meeting. Mags phoned 999 and I went down to the water's edge to keep the girls calm. An attempt to wade in got to about 6 inchesof water before I slipped on sea-weedy boulders and gave up. The police and ambulance were there within minutes and the lifeboatmen on a fast RIB from Kinghorn RNLI station soon arrived. After a few abortive attempts to reach the wave-lashed rocks, a lifeboat-woman jumped out of the boat to join them. They then got the girls off their precarious perch and whisked them off to land at Dysart Harbour. Those guys are real heroes as they are constantly rescuing folks in trouble on the Fife and Lothian coasts and I take my hat off to them. This really was fast response rescue.
