The Beaumaris RNLI were called out to rescue a capsized tender with two people in the water. The couple from Stockport, Cheshire had launched their yacht earlier in the day from Beaumaris and moored up in the Menai Strait by The Gazelle. They were in their tender on their way back to Beaumaris when it capsized.
The Beaumaris lifeboat was swiftly at the scene and brought the two persons on board, both were uninjured although cold. The couple were taken to the Lifeboat Station to warm up and have a cup of tea, while the lifeboat crew returned to the scene to recover the capsized tender, which was brought to the Lifeboat Station and returned to the owners.
